Love My Livia
I have chronic dysmenorrhea and complex regional pain disorder (CRPD) in my abdomen. I have been debilitated by menstrual pain since puberty. Especially as an adult and developing several self-resolving small ovarian cysts, this device has been a saving grace. I remember the day I received it, I was struggling deeply with cramps. I slapped on the Livia and the first thing I thought after flipping it on was, “Huh, weird. I don’t feel anything.” Then it dawned on me- I don’t feel ANYTHING. The agonizing pain I’d been struggling with all day was only a mild irritation, when it had been nauseatingly bad the whole day before applying the device.
I haven’t had luck with other similar devices due to a latex and adhesive allergy, but I’ve had no reactions to the Livia pads! The device is small and discreet, and doesn’t hurt to remove the pads. They also don’t leave a sticky residue, but have an all-day-long hold that won’t slip, and doesn’t come off if I take a nap with it. Love love love 💚
