I remember waking up one morning during my pregnancy, stretching my legs, and realising
something shocking: The pain was gone.The pain that had ruled my life — the aching, burning, stabbing pain in my legs — it just wasn’t there.
At first, I thought maybe it was a fluke. But day after day, week after week, the fibromyalgia
symptoms that had haunted me for years vanished like they were never real.
I could walk longer distances.
I could sleep without tossing and turning.
I could exist in my body without suffering.
For the first time in years, I felt free. I felt like me again.
And all of this happened while I was growing life inside me.
I didn’t know why at first. But I noticed something else:
Every time I had my period before, the pain would spike. But now that I was pregnant — and
my body was full of hormones like progesterone — I didn’t feel those spikes at all.
Something had changed inside me. Something was protecting me. And I knew I needed to
figure out what it was.
After giving birth, two to three months later, the pain came back.
Same spots. Same intensity. Like it had just been waiting to return.
And that’s when I realised:
This isn’t just fibromyalgia. This is hormonal.
And this story — my story — might not be unique.
It might be the key we’ve all been waiting for.
