Ladycare Magnet

[DSJ]

After strong recommendations from several of my friends, l have purchased a Ladycare magnet.

Now I need to ask, is it worn flat side to flat side? The instructions don't make this clear.

"We advise attaching it to your underwear approximately four inches below the navel (a few inches to the left or right is fine). Remove the small button from the main large curved part and place the large curved face against your body on the inside of your underwear with the small round button on the outside"

Any use?

[DSJ]

Thank you.

Do these actually work?

[Buenchico]

^^^ It depends who you ask, Jo!

Take a look at just how varied the reviews are on Amazon:

never knew they existed.
Every day is a school day.
I won't be buying one tho

One particular friend tells me that she has not suffered a single hot flush for weeks. Her magnet started to work after four days. Her daughter-in-law is in a similar position since buying one.

Obviously they aren't going to suit everybody but I thought it was worth a try after suffering hell for four years. My own problems started long after the menopause, by the way.

I had one and I must say, it did not do much for me!
Had a couple of accidents, one it fell off when I was at work and the second, years ago I wore it through customs and was promptly marched off to be searched. I was nearly stripped naked in front of passengers.

I have got a friend who got stuck to a supermarket trolley

Any benefit comes from the 'Placebo Effect' it's all in the mind. If you are convinced it works then it does.

EDDIE....and you know this because?

Putting a fridge magnet down your knickers would have the same effect but cheaper!

[woofgang]

and you know this because???

Once there has been a 'double blind ' trial of this device and it has proved positive I will change my view !!

[EDDIE51]

This is the standard that any device that claims to have 'beneficial properties' must pass before it can be declared as effective!

If it has not passed a 'double blind' trial it can not be officially endorsed in any way!

...even so, it's an attractive idea.

I read about someone who had the magnet and they kept picking up cutlery in restaurants...

you wouldn't want too many people wearing them near the Canary Wharf tower; you can imagine them all stuck to to it like hundreds of flies on 50-storey-high flypaper. But good luck, DSJ, if it works, it works.

//Since LadyCare rebalances the autonomic nervous system (ANS), it will continue to provide other benefits, such as helping to reduce anxiety, bloating and water retention, and improving sleep, skin, hair and libido. Women have also reported fewer urinary problems.//

Can I use this to help with my water retention >

When wearing a Ladycare magnet does one become attracted to other wearers when shopping or conducting other outdoor activities ?
