I should have started this thread sooner... sorry!
I've been trying Zoft Breast Gum for exactly five weeks and one day, as of yesterday (I haven't chewed it yet today)
So far, no noticeable difference. No pain or tingling, either, but I was warned it would probably take at least two months to notice anything different.
However, I did have my menstrual cycle in that time (duh) and I noticed it was very different than my usual cycles.
Normally, I'm ill or in pain (or both, actually) for the entire first day, and can't eat or drink much of anything. I live on pepto bismol chewables for the first several hours I'm awake (which is usually hours before I actually need to be awake, but I'm woken up in the wee hours of the morning by feeling awful)
This time, however, I only had mild discomfort. I was eating regularly and just feeling -slightly- crummy as opposed to absolutely awful. I didn't even know my period had started until that night, when I went to the bathroom!
Definitely strange for me, but also a definite improvement. I'd chew this gum for the rest of my life if I thought it would help me not have terrible periods.
