Hormones affect so many areas of women's lives—from fertility and regular cycles to menopause and overall wellness. Here, three women share their experiences of how Mira, recommended by their doctors, helped them understand their bodies better and achieve real improvements in their health.
Case Study #1: Identifying Underlying Hormone Issues
Maria, 40,* had been trying to conceive for over a year without success. Even though her cycles seemed regular and her ovulation tests appeared normal, Mira revealed something unexpected: her hormone levels weren't optimal for successful ovulation.
With these new insights, Maria’s doctor suggested specific treatments to boost her hormone levels, helping her achieve better ovulation and increasing her chances of conceiving.
Mira showed Maria:
-
Lower than ideal E3G levels
-
Insufficient rise in E3G before ovulation
-
Low progesterone levels after ovulation
Case Study #2: Revealing the Root Cause of Hormone Imbalance
Emily* was dealing with irregular cycles and confusing hormone patterns. After using Mira, she found out her hormone issues were actually linked to a thyroid problem. Mira's insights prompted further tests, leading to a hypothyroidism diagnosis.
Once Emily started thyroid medication and ovulation treatments, her hormone levels dramatically improved. Just two months later, she joyfully discovered she was pregnant!
Before treatment:
-
Very low and inconsistent E3G changes
-
Small or no LH surge
-
Little or no rise in progesterone
After treatment:
-
Clear improvements in E3G levels
-
Strong LH surge indicating ovulation
-
Healthy progesterone rise
-
Successful pregnancy
Case Study #3: Managing Perimenopausal Symptoms Effectively
For many women, perimenopause can be unpredictable and challenging. Lisa, 49,* faced irregular cycles, heavy bleeding, and frequent spotting. Mira revealed her hormone imbalances—high estrogen without a corresponding LH surge, meaning she wasn't ovulating regularly.
These insights allowed Lisa and her healthcare provider to clearly identify when she was experiencing ovulatory versus non-ovulatory cycles and create a customized treatment plan that eased her symptoms significantly.
Similarly, Anna, 50,* was struggling with intense anxiety, mood swings, breast tenderness, heavy periods, and emotional stress. Mira showed her fluctuating estrogen levels and lack of ovulation, pointing clearly to hormonal imbalance.
With guidance from her doctor, Anna began specific lifestyle changes, dietary improvements, supplements, and progesterone therapy. Her hormone levels soon stabilized, dramatically reducing her symptoms and greatly improving her overall quality of life.
Before treatment:
-
High, unstable estrogen levels
-
No clear LH surge or progesterone activity
After treatment:
-
Stabilized hormone levels
-
Significant relief from symptoms and improved well-being
