A Danger Period Through Which Every Woman Must Pass.
Owing to modern methods of living, not one woman in a thousand approaches this perfectly natural change without experiencing a train of very annoying and sometimes painful symptoms. At this period a woman indicates a tendency towards obesity or tumorous growths.
Those dreadful hot flashes, sending the blood surging to the heart until it seems ready to burst, and the faint feeling that follows, sometimes with chills, as if the heart were going to stop forever, are only a few of the symptoms of a dangerous nervous trouble. The nerves are crying out for assistance. The cry should be heeded in time. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound was prepared to meet the needs of woman's system at this trying period of her life, and all women who use it pass through this trying period with comfort and safety.
August 6, 1902.
My trouble was Change of Life and cramping. No human tongue can describe what I suffered with the cramp. I dreaded from one time to another so much that I almost wanted to die.
Our family physician did everything he could for me, but I got no relief. He said if I lived to get through with the other trouble it would wear away after a time, but I had it six years, and could not walk or exercise in any way without bringing on an attack of the cramp, and I would suffer untold misery until I would be perfectly exhausted and helpless.
I read in one of your little books about Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound being good for female trouble and Change of Life, and thought there was no harm in trying it. So I did, and it helped me, and I was able to take walks and work some.
I am very thankful for the relief your medicine has been to me.
