Violet, the once-daily supplement that provides effective relief from monthly period-related breast pain has partnered with PERIOD to help thousands of women and girls nationwide during this particularly challenging and uncertain time. Five thousand two-month supply boxes of Violet have been shipped to PERIOD National Headquarters in Portland to be distributed nationally to support 10,000 monthly menstrual cycles. Violet supplies have already been sent to organizations that serve women and girls in Arizona, California, Massachusetts, Michigan, Texas and Vermont, with many more Period service partners to receive product in the coming month.
Violet CEO, Dianne Wist, was very specific when looking for the ideal partner for Violet, “We are a daily supplement that gives women and girls tremendous relief from monthly breast discomfort and contributes to the long-term health of their breasts. It was very important to me to find the right organization that provides direct support to women and girls during their menstrual cycle. I’ve been so impressed with PERIOD Movement’s message and their broad community reach. They are putting period-related product into the hands of the women and girls that need it most, especially at this vulnerable time.”
PERIOD was founded in 2014 by two 16-year-old high school students with a passion for periods. To date, PERIOD has addressed over 1 million periods through product distribution and registered over 700 PERIOD chapters in all 50 US states and in over 40 countries. PERIOD’s major focus right now is serving the marginalized communities that are being hit the hardest by the COVID-19 health crisis, as they focus on shipping and maintaining the distribution of free menstrual products to their community partners.
A revolution in women’s breast health, Violet is a once-daily supplement combining two forms of iodine that relieves monthly period-related breast discomfort like tenderness, swelling, heaviness and aches and pains. Violet is designed to remove cyclical breast pain caused by fibrocystic breasts, the buildup of painful and swollen breast tissue due to an increase in hormones like estrogen and prolactin, experienced by 50% of women and girls. Violet can be started on any day in the menstrual cycle and relief can be felt within 60 days or sooner.
I am 49 and was diagnosed with estrogen progesterone left breast cancer last year. I was also diagnosed with Graves Disease in February 2020 after a Hysterectomy.
My thyroid is very stable at this point. I do however have multiple cysts in my opposite breast which are so painful. I feel Iodine is the answer but I know I have to be careful about my thyroid. Please advise. Thank you!
Hi Ami! Thank you for your interest in Violet. YOU are one of the many women Violet is here to serve. We are sorry to hear you’re experiencing such intense breast pain.
It’s important to check with your doctor before taking Violet or any other supplement.
We recommend women who have a history of thyroid disease, a known family history of thyroid disease or a hypersensitivity to iodine to avoid taking our product.
If in fact you do not suffer from any of the above, Violet can be breakthrough supplement in having healthy breasts for life. Part of what makes our patented product safe for many women is the key ingredient of stabilized molecular iodine. When taken on an empty stomach first thing in the morning it is ingested and begins to work in the stomach, by-passing the thyroid. Any excess not absorbed in the body is passed through the system by urination.
I hope this helps along with the advice you are receiving from your physician to bring clarity in understanding if Violet is right for you.
