I realized I had some of that unfiltered, organic ACV in my cupboard. I've heard the filtered/clear stuff doesn't work and that it has to say "with mother" on the front. I pulled some out and mixed 2 tbsp with a Hot Toddy in the evening. I know, I know, evil... but I was miserable and a little cognac helped too. It worked within a few hours. It's freakin' amazing! I can't believe all the years of heavy periods and all the money on doctors. This allows you to control how heavy your periods are.
I've learned for me that 2 Tbsps of ACV (the unfiltered kind) three times a day eliminated my period all together. Adding a little liquid stevia with some water helps the taste. So now I'm going to reduce the amount of ACV I'm taking until I have a reasonable period. I am just thrilled to have control of such a scary situation - and such an inexpensive, easy solution!

Has anybody had problems with thickening of the lining of womb? Had lots of periods that were heavy and lasted a month or weeks .
Scan found a cyst and lining of womb is 34 mm .Been to gynaecologist and they want to do ablation to remove lining. I have been taking apple cider vinegar and black strap mollases for over a month now and had no bleed so far which is a miracle. Just wondering if it would reduce the womb lining naturally . Gynaecologist says he doesn't advocate any treatment like that and insists I need ablation. I'm very worried and hate hospitals.
Any advice would be brilliant thanx 😇😇😇😇

First if you have the ablation they are pretty easy, office procedure, I had one and it helped.
I also started bleeding terribly again (several years after the ablation). I found ACV and tried it. In 2-3 days all bleeding stopped. I put 3 TBLS in a 32oz. water jug and add a water flavoring I like to mask the taste. I drink it through out the morning and it has stopped the bleeding completely. I have also lost 7 pounds in just a couple of weeks. I generally feel better than I have in almost a year. It is worth a try. No doctor is going to tell you they agree on natural solutions, they want your money. But you know these are things ladies were doing back when there wasn't a wide knowledge of medical information especially for women issues.

I would also recommend bioidentical progesterone replacement as that has heart protective benefits. I am taking 50mg CMP progesterone and drinking 2 tbsp ACV 2x per day. I feel amazing!
My doctor explained that we are subjected to xenoestrogens in just about every processed product we consume (including bottled water made with BPH) and touch in our lives. These xenoestrogens cause hormonal imbalance in the form of estrogen dominance and that can cause heavy menstruation. The ACV helps to eliminate these xenoestrogens, thus restoring balance along with the bioidentical hormone replacement. LOVE IT!!!!

Thank you for your post. I have been taking the Raw organic apple cider vinegar, but have missed the last few days. Even though I'm transitioning into Menopause I ended up w/ a migraine and heavy flow. I'm going to get back on the vinegar. I don't need this sort of trouble. It's difficult to be at work in this situstion. Thank you for posting it!

I ran and measured 2 T. ACV and added about 8 oz of water. I took a straw from the cupboard and sipped in all down rather fast. I didn't care about the taste, I needed help.
Its been about 8 hours and guess what!!!!! It has slowed. I'm in total heaven. I've been so scared. I was feeling weak, dizzy when getting up, etc. Thank you all so much for taking the time to share your stories, I read them ALL! I was prepared for DAYS and DAYS and weeks of misery. Its the middle of June and I want to jump in the pool every day. I was certain that I wouldn't be swimming for the rest of the summer (due to past experiences.) Yay! Bring on summer!!!

Dear Jenny,
Apple Cider Vinegar contains nutrients, so it is possible it helps different things by correcting nutritional deficiencies. It is also used to help alkalize the body, which will help to correct a number of health problems.
It is possible that you will only need it at certain times. On the other hand, it may benefit you taken daily for a long time. Everyone's needs are different.
In times past and even still in some cultures, it is normal to have some sort of fermented food with meals as a condiment. We tend to think of condiments as things to make food taste better, but some condiments actually help the digestion of the meal. (Sauerkraut for example.)
I have been using Apple Cider Vinegar for years and have found it helpful for so many things, internally and externally.

So, day one in the evening I did 3 tbsp of ACV. With the Mothers on it. Made sure it was this kind only! Second day, 3 tbsp of ACV. With splash of apple juice. Drank quickly followed with 8 oz water. I noticed my cycle was getting lighter. I could hardly believe my eyes! I figured it couldn't hurt to keep drinking away. Day three period almost gone and only spotting. Can't believe this has actually worked!! I want to yell from ROOF top to all women suffering. This is hands down the best thing ever.
Thanks, earthclinic for for sharing the info. If you had not posted I wouldn't be better.

Dear Beth,
I agree with Mmsg that Blackstrap Molasses would be something else good to try, in addition to the ACV.
Regarding the ACV, everyone is different. If you try the pills, try a couple a day and see how it does. If you see no change, you could increase to 4 etc. My husband takes 2 a day of the NOW brand. I think they smell terrible. :) But he thinks my vinegar drink tastes terrible! :) You might look at the ACV pages on this website to see warnings (in red) and side effects (in orange) to help you see what possible side effects have been noticed.
You might look for the book by Dr. John Lee called, "What your Doctor may not tell you about pre-menopause." I found it very helpful several years ago.
I hope this will be resolved for you soon!

I tried the ACV in water a couple days, and actually stopped for a whole day, but then the next day I started bleeding again, but I didn't drink as much the day prior so that could be why. I stopped it, until I received the ACV (NOW brand) pills in the mail today, I took 4 so far it hasn't stopped, or slowed down, I just hope it works with the pills, as I hate drinking the ACV in the water. Thank you both for answering my questions. I will look for the book. Merry Christmas!

Well, 3 days of the ACV tablets 2x's a day, and so far it's doing nothing to stop the spotting. Maybe I haven't given it enough time yet, but I am losing hope. Most everyone else it seems had the bleeding stop within a few days. I guess I will just be one of the unlucky ones. I will keep taking it, but not holding my breath it will work. If it does work, I will be back to post, if I don't then you will know it didn't. Best wishes to all out there that have had success, and will have success with the ACV.

No I haven't tried those. How much do you take each of those? The ACV tablets are doing nothing for me. I read it takes the ACV tablets longer to get in your system then it does the actual ACV liquid. I may go back to the liquid, because I did stop for a whole day with it. I am only spotting a little, and I can't believe it hasn't stopped it, others that bleed a lot have success. It doesn't make sense, I am worried it's something bad nothing will work. Since I have tried Vitex, ACV, Maca, Am/PM menopausal formula, and Femaprin. Although Femaprin did help me for 14 months it stopped. I probably should have taken a break from the Femaprin for a couple weeks, and started over, someone told me my body, might have just got used to it, and stopped working.

I hadn't had a period since Sept, only spotting. I took the ACV pills for over a week, but wasn't getting any where so I started a couple tbsp of ACV with a couple tbsp of water 2 to 3x's a day & taking Vitamin C pills 1000mg a day then my period started very heavy for about 3 days, and then it went down to spotting., Yesterday I only spotted a few times, and had nothing most of the day. So far today nothing. So I am hoping this will continue. Will write another update, either way, in a few days.
Okay on another note, the ACV pills & combination of drinking the ACV liquid & water made 2 planter warts disappear on my foot, I have had for years, and nothing I did worked. I know it's because of the ACV, because I have not done anything else, I wasn't taking the ACV for this reason only for the spotting, but to my happy surprise got rid of the warts in the process. I had read to soak a wart in the ACV, but I was afraid of it burning my foot. So I guess by taking the ACV internally it worked from inside out, and removed them. So try this also for warts. ACV seems to be a real cure for a lot of things. I just pray the continuation of the ACV & the Vitamin C will continue to keep me from spotting & bleeding, and put me back on track with my periods now that I have had one. Since it helped me rid myself of those warts I hated for so long. I hope this helps someone else.

Dear Carol,
It would be a shame to have to stop something that is helping with the arthritis and weigh loss. My inclination would be to continue for another cycle or two with the vinegar and see how it goes. Perhaps it will level out. Even with the longer cycle, a lighter flow is desirable. If it happens again, you could always try some cayenne or shepherd's purse to see if it will stop the bleeding in a more timely fashion.
I have never noticed ACV affecting my cycle for good or bad and I have taken it for 6 years. But everyone is different. 100 people will share 100 stories on the topic!
Just my 2 cents. Let us know how it goes.

Hi Scmm,
Most Apple Cider Vinegar is diluted to 5% acidity when you buy it. Most people that use and dilute it further in water to drink it. (I do have a child that just takes the 5% straight and then drinks water, to get it over with.) I like 1 Tablespoon of vinegar in an 8 oz. glass of water. This works great for me.

Dear Scmm,
I would go ahead and take it a few days after you period is over. It is safe to take all month long. Some people take it 5 days on and 2 days off.
Let us know if is solves your problem for you!

I was going on holiday at the beginning of August and I was dreading it as I couldn't go swimming like this so 4 days before I went I came on this website and read about Apple cider vinegar, to be honest I thought it was too good to be true and I didnt expect it to work but I went to a health food store and I bought apple cider vinegar and also the apple cider vinegar tablets. I put two tablespoons of water in a glass with some water but I couldnt drink it as it made be gag so I put some orange juice in it but I still couldnt drink it so I had the tablets, within 2 days the bleeding became so light and by the time my holiday came it had completely stopped!! I couldnt believe it I have no idea why this helped.
If anyone is going through the same thing please try ACV as I thought the bleeding would go on forever and im sure it would if I didnt take the tablets! Sorry for the long post but I just wanted to give some hope to people who are going through the same thing.

Hi Carla, Please try find organic - ie stay away from the big companies. Its your body, your garden - use the best for you. You're worth it. I say this becauseo f reading the earlier post of the woman who quit meat products and then started having her period. I have heard this so much - re too much hormones in the food - meat and dairy being the biggies for those who wish to have their periods/get pregnant. God bless your mom for being there with you/for you.

For those looking for a good source of ACV, one of the best and most trusted brands is Organic Apple Cider Vinegar, with "the Mother". Most health food stores carry it, though the smaller independent stores seem more likely to have it than the big chain stores. If you have a Whole Foods Market nearby, they carry it as well. You can also get it at Amazon.com. It's worth the money, and is certainly cheaper over the long run than drugs or surgery. :) Good luck!
