Let’s talk about the thing my mother couldn’t explain to me: . 🗣️
For the last year, I’ve been trying to figure out what’s going on with my body. I went from doctor to doctor, taking blood test after blood test, only for them to suggest a partial hysterectomy. I said absolutely not—I still want my womb. Not one doctor offered a helpful solution, just extreme measures. I walked out of that room feeling completely defeated and silently crying. 😔
My boyfriend at the time didn't understand. The mood changes, the night sweats, the weight gain, and that stubborn extra belly fat had me incredibly frustrated. I even tried weight loss meds like Ozempic, but it just made me lose volume in places I didn't want to be thin, like my face and legs, without actually helping my core weight. My hormones were completely unbalanced, the stress was real, and I felt like I was losing my mind. 📉
Fast forward to Saturday at the Black Expo. Something told me to walk inside. I was having a massive hot flash, and that’s when I met Dr. Donna G. Ivery.
She immediately recognized what was happening. She sat me down, put a fan right on me, and told me to just breathe and cool off. 🌬️💕 We talked, and she answered every single question I had. I wasn't sure about buying anything at first, but with only $20 in my pocket, I took a chance and spent $15 on her book.
Let me tell you: this book explains more than any highly-paid doctor ever told me. 📖✨
If you are navigating this transition and feel unheard or confused about your body, you need to get this book. It was worth every single penny, and I couldn't recommend it more!
