Case studies

I cannot thank the Pause Live team enough for allowing me to be a case study and transforming my Perimenopause journey. I became a case study back in July 2023 when I was at the point of breaking as I was suffering with multiple Menopause symptoms such a severe hot flushes, brain fog, weight gain, bloating, loss of strength, vaginal dryness and low libido. Even though I believed I was doing 'the right' things to combat my symptoms, I couldn't understand why nothing seemed to be working. I was fortunate to be matched with two amazing companies that have completely changed my journey to the point where my Menopause symptoms have nearly disappeared!

Women Wise provided me with a nutrition and supplement plan matched to my actual needs, I now know the foods I need to eat and the right supplements for me instead of guessing and hoping things are going to work. This helped to nearly eradicate my hot flushes, I've lost weight, no more bloating and strength has returned.

EF MediSpa provided me with 3 treatments of Femilift along with the AQ Skin Solutions GF Vaginal Rejuvenation System which have both dramatically improved my vaginal dryness and my libido is back!

Being a PAUSE Live Case Study was a transformative journey for me. Weight gain, hot flushes, brain fog, and itchy skin were massive symptoms in my menopause, and all were having a huge impact on my quality of life. As the Managing Director of a busy company, I found it difficult making peace with the fact that I couldn’t remember tasks and deadlines as I used to. I would have to say things before I forgot. Using “Focus” by Pharmstrong for brain fog was lifechanging. I also used The Slimming Clinic to battle any weight concerns I had. My confidence has grown and although I’ll never feel 20 again, I feel more myself than I have in years! 

My message to you…don’t give up! PAUSE Live was curated to help give you the help and support you deserve.

The treatments I had as part of my case study for Pause Live! have been life-changing. I felt so lucky to work with Dr Shirin Lakhani to address my bladder problems. I cannot believe the difference the treatments have made. I had constant discomfort and felt like I needed the toilet all the time. I had no ability to hold it if I needed the loo, and I was regularly waking up in the night or early hours to wee. All of those symptoms have gone. I can now hold my urine for just as long as I could before I was perimenopausal. As well as that, my skin felt amazing after drinking Skinade for three months. I have made some really positive changes to the way I am working and managing my time thanks to my coaching with Laura Mac, and I have been taking the Pharmstrong Balance supplements, which have really helped with my hormonal ups and downs as I am not on any HRT.
