Thank you for your replies. I just completed my week 8 and getting somewhat discouraged. I never pegged myself for someone who needs instant gratification, but it's scary not knowing if it's going to work at all. This thing is really cramping my style, haha. I think my boyfriend (while very supportive on the surface) is hating the bejesus out of it... I can't say that I blame him. Another thing that sort of added to my discomfort is my obgyn. My doctor is actually the guy that was featured in the Allure magazine with the original Brava hype. He was leading the pack on Brava doctors.

I just found out that when I got my Brava system and there he was in in the article. I asked him about it and he said, don't waste your money it doesn't work. So that was sad.... I didn't have the heart to tell him I was already using it.

I think I'm keeping about an inch of swelling (at best through the evening), but it's not much. And I worry that it will be 6 months of torturing my boyfriend with no results. He does get a good laugh out of it, I'm sure. I look absolutely ridiculous in that thing, but still... Kind of sucks to spend all this time for the laughs.

So two weeks ago, I added a few herbs. I was doing hops, fenugreek and fennel with flax seed oil here and there. Needless to say nothing after 2 weeks. But if it does work, I guess I won't know what did it :/ To many variables, and scientific method fail.
