Treatise on the Diseases of Women

I thought I would write and state my condition to you and ask if you
think you can do me any good. I am fifty-five years old, never had any
children. I came here from Brooklyn for my husband's health, he having
consumption. I have always had good health, never any trouble with my
menses, always regular until two or three months before my husband died,
which was March 25, 1901. As soon as he died, I commenced and flowed
constantly ever since. I know it must be the Change of Life. I did not
worry about it for four or five months, then I had a doctor but he did
me no good. I had another with the same result. Last May I had to go to
New York and traveling I think was too much for me as I have been worse.
I saw a doctor there and he wanted me to go to the hospital and have my
womb curetted, but I did not feel like having that done. I never have
any pain only once in a while a little backache. Please let me know if
you think you can do me any good.

I feel that I must write and thank you for the good you have done me. I
wrote to you my case last summer. I flowed constantly for sixteen months
so badly that I dared not go any where and the doctors all said an
operation. Nothing did me any good. As a last resort I appealed to you.
I had no faith in your medicine, but thought I would try it and if it
did me no good I would go to the hospital. I took two boxes of the Lydia
E. Pinkham's Compound Pills and started on the third and now I am all
right. I was run down, nervous, could not sleep, no appetite, but Lydia
E. Pinkham's Compound has cured me entirely. I am very grateful to you
and wish that everyone afflicted as I was would try it.

Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound did wonders for me during the
_Change of Life_.
I was troubled with backache and headache, hot flashes and cold chills,
pains in my hips, and at times would have such pains under my shoulder
blades that I could hardly move for a while. I hope that other suffering
women will take your medicine.
Many thanks for what you have done for me.
MRS. SARAH DERFER,
Dundee, Ohio.
