i just got livia, you can increase and lower its intensity. my periods are always really really heavy and beyond painful and just uncomfortable in general. livia was almost instant relief. it’s weird to describe but i know when i’m cramping, but it isn’t painful with livia. it’s almost like the slightest bit of pressure but you can’t really feel it and it doesn’t hurt a bit. i would always have to leave work early from my cramps but i bring livia with me and it’s like a God send. i highly recommend!
I agree. I have the same experience with it. Love it!
So glad you mentioned you have endometriosis. I have PCOS and possibly endometriosis. The pain I get on my periods from this and throughout the month is something I can't explain to other women who dont understand. I've been nervous about trying livia because I'm not sure if it would work for my pain level
Paige Rancourt yes do try it! Hate to see woman suffer. Try the cheaper version first if u want to make sure it works for you. Or u could get the Livia device and return it in the timeframe they give for returns. Either way u don’t lose much but hopefully it helps you. Let me know how it goes!
I also get terrible pain 🙌🏽 Hold strong
Hey I'm with u too,I've been diagnosed with endo too..be strong..you've got support 👍🏻👍🏻
As do I, I often get flu symptoms because it makes me so sick and in so much pain. The countless call outs all for this reason praying this helps
it’s so hard to find other women who experience the same pain as me and figuring out what the real diagnosis is😭
Thank you. I dread that time of the month so I've been steadily looking for ways to combat my painful period.
I’m actually trying a tens machine right now for the first time and it is definitely helping. Coming from someone who STRUGGLES with terrible pain during her period, I say it’s worth a shot for anyone who has ínstense pain and want to give it a go.
Thank you! I've been trying to decide which product I should get to help manage the first couple of days of my period.. I didn't see a lot of reviews for the Livia so I'm glad I came across yours..and even happier that someone somewhere is offering options for women to help with period pain.
Thank you for this! was really trying to see if livia was worth the price but looks like your mainly paying for portability and simplicity, right now with covid im working from home so tens seems like the answer for me!
I just used my Livia for the first time at work on Friday!! Wow!! Totally worth it
Thank you so much for this review!!
Another great video, Kavita. A great comparison of the pros and cons of each device. Since I wasn't aware of either, I appreciated your thoughts on the pricing, benefits and size.
Thank you - glad you found the video to be useful.
Thanks for reviewing these items, I wish I had known about them before my endometriosis surgery (resolved my endo pain), but now I know one more way to help my daughter when her periods are bad.
I am happy you have resolved your endo pain! Yes, this is a great option and hopes it works for her.
What’s your other way. I’m Desperate
@@victoriamunis7692 this machine or any tens machine
How did you figure out you have endo?
@@katelynlee574 Hi Katelyn, it was highly suspected after years of suffering. I finally had a gyno do an exam with this in mind, and he agreed with me. Before surgery, I also had ultrasounds that showed my very large endometeriomas on my ovaries. But there was no official diagnosis until I had my surgery. Stage IV invasive endo with frozen pelvis and adenomyosis ( endo in the wall of the uterus).
I will be trying it ...I'm a endo sufferer too... really need a break..
I'm try the Livia for the first time while watching it. For me it tingles and is helping with pain
I use a tens unit for headaches. It is nice to know that it can be used for period pain too!
I am a man and I am glad I came across you video. I have been wanting to innovate something in this domain and your video is very helpful. Thanks a lot. I hope I can use TENS UNIT tech and achieve something useful!
"watch my video on pain relief alternatives" *smashes the subscription button*
I want to try this. I get such bad low back pain before my period it makes my job as a barista so so so hard to get through
Problem with the cheaper device is I can't really hide that in my pocket at work ..
This device is such heaven sent
Jane Stoller so happy to hear you have found some relief from this device! Thrilled that more companies are designing products for women’s health issues.
Loved this review! I’m currently waiting for appointments for unexplained pelvic pain (my GP reckons it may be endometriosis) and need something I can use at work. Have just bought the Livia on sale and will give it a go!
Where did you find the sale? I neeeed a portable device..but I'm so cheap. Livia's price point is too rich for my blood.
Get a tens machine on Amazon it’s so much cheaper and the same thing
Livia doesn’t do much for severe pain, just a slight tingling distraction sometimes does irritate the pain furthermore but when your so desperate for relief you’ll just be trying everything available
I found a tens machine that cost $50 I’m going to buy it tonight, and the most important thing about that tens machine is pocket-sized. Can’t wait to order it!
Does it work for pain??
did it work?
Great video Kavita!! I do like the tens machines. I would def need something I could move around with. Great breakdown of both. $150 not that much. You got a few views out of me because I kept getting interrupted by my kids 🤣
Thank you for the views and yes it is super useful having a device that you can wear all day while you go about your day!
Thanks for doing this.
You are very welcome and hope you found it to be useful.
I did thanks.
Thank you for trying these! I am looking into the Ovira or Livia to help my endometriosis pain because I have endo pain all the time not just on my period. This review helped!
Did you end up trying ovira or livia?
I have the same struggle, dont know which one to choose
@@katelynlee574 curious to know also
Thank you for the video!! I was trying to decide!! I have endometriosis too, now I can decide which one, TENT would be for me
*tens device
I’m having period cramps rn, it hurts sooooo bad!! I’m crying so much rn but I have to be silently crying because I don’t wanna wake my mom and sister up. 😭😭😭😭
Just got the livia today (and then started watching reviews after lol) fingers crossed it helps at least a little. I’m on birth control, so no bleeding for me but i still get the heavy cramps and mood swings lol. If the cramps can be somewhat relieved, maybe my mood will be a little better too.
Lol same I got so scared from all those "is livia a scam!?" Titles
I had the most painful period pains (passing out, vomiting etc), until I recently intuitively massaged myself around my womb are, getting really deep as when massaging really bad knots on your back or something. Continued for about 30 min, felt euphoric almost, just like when you get a really good back massage. Pain stopped instantly. Had no idea it was that easy.
Thank you for your review! I was wondering if you have tried Ovira? Do you like it better than Livia or vice versa?
I have not tried Ovira, but it is all the same technology. It is cheaper than Livia and seems to offer the same tech/features that make it easy to use on the go. They offer a 100-day money back deal so you could always try it out and if it works great and if it doesn't you can send it back.
Livia helps. Not a cure all, but definitely takes that edge off. I use it along with a heating pad and ibuprofen. I get pain in my lower back and all down the front of my legs so I can still feel pain there, but in the area where my uterus is, it helps.
There are also much smaller sizes of the TENS unit; the one I have is about the size of an iPod Nano, and I’ve definitely been able to leave the house and enjoy normal daily activities without it being clunky or in the way. It has lots of modes and intensity can be adjusted significantly.
Tl;dr Livia looks prettier, obviously, but I wouldn’t spend my money simply based on the aesthetic value of it (and if it’s discreet enough, no one will see it anyway). Pocket-sized TENS are much more affordable.
Anyone with extreme period Pain really should go see their doctor, I got my first period when I was 9 year old and they've always been incredibly plainful for me and it Wasn't until I was 20 years that I was diagnosed with Ovarian cysts which was only bc I had one burst and then several months later when I found my self in surgery getting my appendix removed (which was fine) that I was diagnosed with endometriosis. Anyone born with a uterus and is experiencing extreme pain please go see a gyno I know it's uncomfortable and awkward but it's needed you don't deserve to be In that much pain take care of yourself please
Hi! Have you used the one from Beurer brand?
I have high blood pressure. Will this be ok to still use?
i’ve been having monthly ovarian cysts on my right ovary for the past 7 months, and they’re not exactly in sync with my period so i’m at a loss for what it could be. i’m going to see my gynecologist with endometriosis in mind, to see if that’s what it may be. is surgery the only permanent way to get rid of these?? i’m desperate
Ladies,may I ask if I should get this for gf? How effective is it for period pain relief?Your input is very much appreciated.Thank you.
I just bought livia as size was most ideal
Ugh.. i had to stay home from work today. I'm tried of suffering so i just ordered one.
Does it really works?
Livia is on sale right now for $129! Finally got myself one, I’m at a dead end 😫
Mine just got here today! I ordered it a month and a half ago and it just got here! Late of corse!
Mine arrived late also, but I paid 40.... subscription.
Can someone give me an honest review of livia , I'm planning to but this for my girlfriend who experiences severe period cramps.
Thanks in advance.
How to buy
The thing is that I have a dr ho and I also have a no name machine that’s supposed to do the same thing but it’s not near as good as the dr is so my thoughts are that it depends on what kind of tens device your compatriot g this too….
Wait I’m so mad. I could have paid less and got the tens unit.
Kaylee Lambert there is a window of time in which you can return it BUT it is definitely more portable and less clunky than the tens unit so you can wear it all day and take it out
What did the livia feel like I feel nothing and they have sent me new flower pads and still I feel nothing
@@JAdams0919 increase the intensity.
does it really work ?
its crazy that i got a tens machine but never used it for my period because it said to never use it during a period
yeah it is actually quite frustrating to me because there are not enough products for women and our health struggles and even with good products they don't tell you how you could use it for our specific needs! Let me know if you feel like it works for you. Praying it does :)
How long are the leads on the Livia? I was thinking of getting one for a more portable option for my chronic pain, which is mostly lower back. But the leads don't look too long. I do also have the Healthmate and love it, but you're right. It's clunky. And not very portable.
The leads on the Livia device are about the length of my arm from my hand to my elbow. You would have to have the device tucked into a pocket near your pelvis/stomach area as it will not stretch far.
I have my tens on my tummy now!
You can get decent, neater TENS machines though 😊
Yes there are lots of great options on the market at different price points
I feel like the electrical currents are too strong for me, even on the first level. I have the healthmate one.
Opposite for me. It's on max and i keep checking the light to see if it's even on cauae I aint feeling nothing
Where would I put it when I am very oversized, I think it would be underneath my stomach, would it hold there??
I have the same question 😮
I dont care about the price yes just what this nasty pain disappear
I hear you! You just want to do whatever you can to get rid of the pain!! Praying it went away fast and that it does not come back or that the tens machine or the other tips help you out.
Hi. Is this also helpful for endometriosis pain ?
Hello! I personally have used this for endometriosis pain but it was not created for this type of pain. You could always try a cheaper version of the device for your endo pain and if it works for you and you want something more portable you could try this. I was in so much pain each month that I was willing to try anything and found this to be a good option that was not just a pill. Hope this helps.
If you don’t have this put the heated seats on in your car 😅
It’s like 30 dollars now
I am in India. I want to buy these devices. I suffer from immense pain and I want to buy both the options.
Livia provides free shipping all over the world so you should have no problem getting this device. The tens unit or something similar should be available on Amazon - I have a link for both devices in my video description.
Match Health thanks a lot 😍
Why the price gouge though? I get that it's smaller and discreet but that doesn't justify a 300% - 600% mark up. Totally ridiculous.
Can this device helpful for migraine period my friend is suffering from migrane which one is useful for her 🤔
Let her try self-hypnosis/meditation for migraine. Works for me.
How much price
Livia is on sale $129 normally $199
I have endometriosis and ovarian cysts and I've always had very Painful periods I've actually had to go to the er a few times bc of my period /cysts bursting and I have a Livia device and idk if it's like a placebo effect or whatever but for me it does help some i put it on my tummy and turn it up and up and up as soon as I get used to the (shocking) feeling I turn it up more-fun fact I actually had my appendix removed bc I had an ovarian cyst burst and the doctors just assumed it was my appendix since I was in so much pain but it was also good bc that's when I was diagnosed with endometriosis they went in knowing I'd had some cysts so they took my appendix but also drained some cysts since they knew I had them and found the endometriosis
And I once put the livia on some of my male coworkers hands( they didn't want to put it on their stomachs) just to show then how it feels and their fingers curled up unable to move it was so funny
My mother bought the device for me if I had know it was so expensive idk if I would have let her buy it for me but it does help again idk if a placebo affect or if it actually does something but for me it really just helps distract from the pain for the most part
I got a tens machine on Alliexpress for less than 10 euros including a backup cable and 20 replacement pads 😅
Would you say it's worth it?
@@chikadesel7161 absolutely. It doesn't turn off the pain but at my worst I can totally feel a difference
Great video! Such good tips. I also made a video about this just in case you or anyone else is interested in watching 💜
Im a dude watching this video for my gf, feels weird when she says girls 😄
I am dead😢😭
