De Lune Steady Mood, Natural Relief for reducing PMS Related Mood Swings and Stress, Vitamin B6, Saffron Flower Extract, Calcium, Magnesium, Rhodiola Rosea and Zinc, 60 Tablets (Pack of 2)

My cramps have always been painful, whether I take OTC pills or herbs, or both. I tried this for the first time this week... I’m truly amazed by how well this works.Day 1: I missed the first day, because I did not have the product yet. I had taken 2 Naproxen Sodium with Brazen/PMS and Cramp Relief herbs and Solaray’s Menstrual herbs twice. Once in the morning and once in the evening, the doses are the same. I was in pain, but doing okay. Of course, day one is never my worst day.I was not happy I took 4 pain reliever in one day and this is something I’ve been aiming to avoid. Most period supplements say you should take them all month, and this is also extremely costly. Some work okay, others not at all. So, I find myself regularly taking herbs and period supplements as needed.Day 2: This is normally my worst and heaviest day. I was bleeding very heavily. I took De Lune Cramp Aid only on an empty stomach. It was fast acting in less than 30 minutes. I may have felt a mild uncomfortableness, but overall the pain was gone! I also had energy and wasn’t lethargic. This was amazing to me. I started getting pain again later in the evening and took the dose as prescribed again. It worked immediately and I felt so much better on this period than I ever have. I was able to function normally, and not feel the need to lay down in bed, all scrunched up and, not wanting to move. It truly was so much better than expected.Day 3: Usually is equivalent to day 2. I followed the exact routine as before and had the same results. No other herbs or OTC pills were needed.Day 4: I’m on day 4 now. Normally I would still have cramps, but they’re actually gone. I feel normal and haven’t had to take the cramp air yet.If this keeps working, I will actually be able to reduce intake of OTC pills, or completely stop taking them altogether. This is exactly what I’ve been trying to do for so long, as taking OTC pills is extremely bad for us, and long term use can only cause more harm to our bodies and health problems which we all want to avoid.As far as people saying they’re burping up a weird taste all day, for me it was hardly noticeable. On an empty stomach I burped a couple of times tasting herbs, but it was a mild taste and not that bad. If I ate around the time of taking them, then it was even less noticeable. Personal, I think this complaint is not a big of deal. Considering it’s such a small little issue, and the product is seemingly doing such a great job with pain relief. Plus, almost all herbs when you burp taste funny, so it’s not something that I think can always be avoided. Nonetheless, it doesn’t bother me.I really appreciate that this is natural and actually helps with pain relief. So many market their herbs as pain relieving, and they aren’t really good at that. Most of them help with inflammation and very mild pain relief, but if you used them by themselves most would still need OTC pills. While using De Lune Cramp Aid I didn’t need OTC pills at all, and that is a FIRST!Cons: Price and stronger formula:The price is a bit costly per capsule, but I think I may be one of the lucky ones that will be able to make this last for 3 to 4 cycles if it continues to work the same. However, I hope to see the price drop if able to, as to make it more affordable. For those who have to pay for it every month it could add up quickly, especially during a time when so many don’t have jobs. I will say this, I’m not spending as much overall taking De Lune Cramp Aid, as I only have to take it as needed, when comparing to the other products I buy. Brazen PMS relief by itself is more expensive than one box of De Lune Cramp Aid. Plus, with taking Brazen Cramp Relief, Solaray Menstrual relief, and OTC pills, my costs are usually 4x more with all of the above than with Cramp Aid alone. Plus, I have to take the concoction more often, which means I have to purchase it more often. With De Lune Cramp Aid it looks like I’ll only have to purchase it every couple of months if it continues to work like it did this cycle. So even though I do pay more per capsule with De Lune, the price, and overall cost is so much less. So I do end up saving more money than I ever have on period relief costs. Although this is a con, I do recognize the positives.Some people seem to need a stronger formula, and I hope to see that come to fruition for those needing it. Being in excruciating pain every month really makes it hard to get things done in life. Having to go to the doctor or taking a lot of OTC pain meds is just not healthy and only leads to other long term issues. All of which will cost a buttload of money. I hope to see companies focus on making stronger, affordable, natural formulas for period and overall pain relief so women can live a normal and pain free life as much as possible. In doing so will only create long time customers. It would be a win win for all.Overall: This is an absolutely amazing product that works for me. I would definitely recommend trying it out, and you may be the 80% that no longer have those painful periods. For the other 20%, I hope this helps with relief until you find something that works for you.Of course I will update you on my next cycle. See you next month for hopefully positive results!

I give 5 stars overall bc it is a quality product.Does it eliminate severe cramps? No. I have struggled with severe cramping from age 13-26. In recent years, my diet has improved and so have my cramps. With de lune cramp aid, it's even better. beware. It alleviates mild cramping or brings severe cramps down to mild cramps. So someone like myself who has experienced severe cramping (with dizziness, sweats, must lay down, nausea, etc.) I am able to at least continue my day. When my cramps are mild, I don't see the need to take any remedies. So the fact that this is for mild cramps (which I did not know based on their ads) makes it a little null. However I still like the product.A funny thing, when I first bought this it was new and had no reviews. So I was wondering, does anyone else's body exude the honey, sweet, herbal smell of this capsule while using it? It's so weird but not horrible.1$ per capsule is a little high but I didnt have to use them every day / every cycle. Overall, 5 stars for de lune. thank you !

I contacted De Lune customer service BEFORE purchasing this cramp relief product and explained that the shipping time to the Philippines would put me beyond the Amazon 30 day return time AND I wouldn't be able to return unused product. They said no problem.Well, here it is two months later. This product did NOTHING for my fiancée's cramps. So, I requested a refund. At first they were all 'We're so sorry to hear you didn't like our product'. De Lune customer support asked if it was an in-store or Amazon purchase. After providing a copy of my Amazon receipt they went dark. No longer replying to update requests on my refund.Update: Thankfully Amazon reviews still have some impact. A few days after I posted this they managed to finalize the refund.

I was skeptical but hopeful for both. I have PCOS and PMDD meaning my PMS/ periods are accompanied by an insane amount of pain and extreme depression. Unfortunately cramp aid didn’t work for me at all, I still had to lay down on my heating pad and take some Advil to relieve the pain. However, I’ve been taking steady mood for an entire cycle now and it’s incredible. My PMDD symptoms are gone! Reduced tearfulness, no more obsessive thoughts or depressive episodes around PMS!!! My everyday mood is stable day to day and I would say I have more energy. Buy steady mood, maybe skip out on cramp aid.

UPDATE: HOLY CATS THIS WORKS! Usually I have cramps so bad I can't get out of bed/am in constant contact with a heating pad for at least 3 days. These knocked those right out. The first day I got them, I was all wrapped up in my heating pad and yes it took two doses, but the rest of my period I only needed another two doses to feel right as rain all week. It was really only that first dose that had the weird beef flavor/burps, but you know what? I'll take it for the the relief these provided. These knocked out cramps that my medical CBD and a handful of ibuprofen couldn't even touch. MAGICAL.Ok, so I'm not sure how well they're actually working for cramps, but I can say so far that a) these things taste and smell like a beef bullion cube with a weird ginger after taste and b) OMG you're going to burp these up like they're the worst fish oil pill so get used to that flavor. I'll update later on if they actually work, but as of 30 min later, just burps.
