If you've tried it, post it here! Tell me about your experience with it please and how many you took in the beginning and what you take now.

I ordered the 4 month supply and the first 2 days I took 6 and today I'm only taking 4. Not sure if its in my head, but I swear I'm more symptomatic on the Desert Harvest then I was not on it.

Is this just a bad reaction? Should I continue and see what happens or call it quits? My frequency isn't bad at all, just the typical menstrual crampy pain again. Of course, I am on day 9 my cycle so I'm coming up on ovulation again :cussing:

It helped me years ago when I took it for a short time, I don't think I took more than 2 a day however I also had mild IC, not sure what degree yours is?:cat: :angel:

Took it for three months, nada. But I think it works well for people that have success with Elmiron. Some folks do well with bladder coatings. Others like myself, who seem to have autoimmune or nerve damage issues, don't seem to get results from Aloe.

I just started my second bottle. I think that it helps. I am taking 6 a day and have been wondering how many you can take in a day. I think I do really much better with it. brenda

Just finished a months worth...so far, nada. Doesn't seem to help...or hurt for that matter. I tend to agree with OrlandoP about the bladder coating issue.
