UPDATE: (5/13/23) Wanted to give an update on this product. I've been taking it since I wrote this review (except for a month when I went off it).
I stopped taking the D3 (one of the other supplements I was taking) -- I believe that it was leading to constant dehydration for me. I only take the Turmeric with Black Pepper *sometimes*, but overall, I don't take it anymore. Still faithful to taking the iron supplement and I still recommend the home-made smoothies that I mentioned.
There was a month when I didn't buy a new bottle of this product (DIM 200) -- and then during my next period, I had several days of spotting past the fifth day (using DIM 200 had gotten my period back to five days with maybe a day of spotting afterward). So I bought a new bottle, and I'm back on DIM 200 -- I only take one pill every day or every other day plus the iron supplement. Also, I do think that this product is helping to curb my appetite, I'm not as hungry as I usually am and I'm finally starting to lose weight (wasn't intentional, but I'm not mad about it).
I still recommend this product. I still also recommend -- if you have uterine fibroids -- to reduce or eliminate added sugar (for me, that means cutting back on sweets and letting go of soda). I believe that what we eat is very important. I also avoid any foods that act like/mimic/increase estrogen. And although some kinds of tea can be good for PMS/cramps/heavy bleeding, tea isn't good for you if you're anemic like me (tea can block iron absorption). Even further -- raspberry leaf tea helps menstrual issues, but it can increase estrogen and make fibroids worse (it is believed that fibroids are caused by estrogen dominance).
As always, do your own research. I'm not a doctor. Always approach what you see written here (or on the internet) with hopeful curiosity, but also with a slightly critical eye and an openness to find out more. I didn't mean to write a book here, but I wanted other women like me to have hope about living with fibroids (I wasn't treated with care/gentleness when I was diagnosed and that hurt so much, I don't want anyone else to feel alone like I did).
I hope this works for you. If you experience negative side effects (I've seen some reviewers who did), I hope you find a version of DIM 200 (offered by another company) that works for you.
Thank you!
____________________________________________________________________________________
I'm going to tell you my experience with DIM 200, the other supplements I take with it, lifestyle changes I've made, and possible side effects -- in the hopes that this will help other women.
So, around two months ago, I was diagnosed with uterine fibroids. I'm also anemic, which is likely connected to the fibroids. My symptoms became the worst around five or six months ago where my periods were six or seven days long (they are usually four or five days), I had really bad cramps, and I was bleeding so heavily that I was constantly having to run to the bathroom at work (I work in retail, so this just isn't feasible; sometimes, I would just have to call out on a heavy-bleeding day).
Not knowing anything about fibroids, I did what I do best: 1) Became consumed by my own anxiety/panic/depression, and 2) Researched my butt off about this and what could help. I believe that almost everything has a solution or at least a way to improve the situation.
About two or three weeks before my period post-diagnosis, I upped my iron intake (iron gummies weren't helping, so I switched to actual iron supplements AND I drink a lot of simple smoothies -- frozen or fresh fruit, a little honey, sometimes some ground flaxseed, plus as much unsweetened cocoa powder as I want because that stuff has 10% of your daily value of iron in each tablespoon).
Supplements I started taking (besides DIM 200): D3 supplement, iron supplement. On the first day of my period, I started the DIM 200 and Turmeric with Black Pepper (plus the D3 and iron) because that's when they came in the mail.
Let me tell you and this is the honest truth: During this period, I had only a few hours of heavy bleeding on one of the days, only a few smaller-sized clots, and I didn't have to rush to the bathroom due to "flooding." It was amazing! This is also the third month in a row that my period has been on time, but I attribute that to the increase in iron. I have never had a predictable period in my entire life.
I still had cramps, and took a Tylenol to help with that, but my period was overall light to medium.
Also, I felt good. Like emotionally and mentally good. I usually cope with PMDD, but this time, I felt (and still feel) good on the inside.
Possible side effects: Another reviewer mentioned tightness in her lower back, and I had that, too -- it didn't last long, though, fortunately. It did worry me because I wasn't expecting it. I didn't have orange pee like a few other reviewers. I didn't feel any possible headaches, maybe because I was taking Tylenol for my cramps.
Other lifestyle changes I've made: I'm getting more sleep at night (I was only getting about five hours -- if that -- at night) and not sleeping can throw off your hormones. I'm being mindful about my stress levels. I've drastically reduced my sugar intake, I don't eat red meat (I used to eat some for my anemia), and I am overall more mindful about what I eat.
Would I recommend this product: I've only been on it for about two weeks, but so far, YES! I am so thankful that this exists, and I am so happy it is helping so many people, so many women. Please be sure to do your own research to see if this could work for you and whatever you're coping with, and I hope that if you try DIM 200, it works for you and helps you, too.
