Menopause

Lady care magnet

Have any of you lovely ladies tried the Lady Care magnet to treat peri/menopausal symptoms. I'm getting desperate for help with every menopausal symptom going plus some! Has the magnet worked or maybe not worked for you. Thoughts please. X

It's quackery! Don't waste your money!
Have you thought of HRT?

Mil had horrendous symptoms. All calmed down loads since she bought her magnet.

Yes but who's to know if all these symptoms wouldn't have calmed down anyway? That's the thing with meno- symptoms come and go. Drugs and treatments (all) have a 30% placebo rate. The research on the magnets shows no effects at all. Obviously we all know people who have been sured by snake oil or whatever, but that's not the same as proper research trials with thousands of people some wearing magnets and some wearing lumps of metal in their knickers!

It may well be the placebo effect! All I know is the mil swears by it and believes its money well spent. We've certainly seen a change in her for the better so I would say for her, it works. For others? Who can say.

But that's the point- you cannot ever know it was the magnet! maybe even without it her symptoms would have abated.

I agreed it could be a placebo effect!
