"Yes, it stopped my heavy and painful period, but the hot flashes, night sweats, little to no sex drive, elevated blood pressure, and pure tiredness. I don’t know if it’s worth it. After my experience, I’m opting to just get a hysterectomy."

"I'm 54 years old and I had my Mirena removed 2 years ago. Within the month, I started to have very heavy bleeding. I was hoping I was perimenopausal, but I started having regular periods on time every month, but they were very, very heavy. I tried a few different birth control pills that did nothing. I went in for an ultrasound where they found a uterine fibroid in the uterine wall. Then I went for an MRI, and it showed it to be a small to medium-sized fibroid. This is when my gynecologist recommended Myfembree, and it was the answer for me! I don't have any side effects aside from a flushed face every now and then. I've always been hot-blooded, so I don't notice hot flashes. I have had no hair loss. The bleeding completely stopped. I am going to dread the day I go off this medication because of the fear of heavy bleeding again. I was to the point where I wore 4 pads at once and changed them every 2 hours. It felt like I was hemorrhaging. It was horrible. I highly recommend this medication!"

"This pill has successfully eliminated all my pain. So far, I have been on it for 4 months and the fibroids are slowly shrinking. I have not had any negative side effects. If you take the pill as instructed (start on the first day of the period. Take it the same time every day. Do not skip a dose)."

"I've been taking this medication for almost 2 months now. I have not had a period for the second month but just started experiencing some leg cramps and pain in my left lower abdomen. Not sure of what's causing the leg numbness/pains or if it's caused by the Myfembree, but I read up on the side effects and see one is blood clots, which concerns me. If anyone else is experiencing this, please write a review about it so that others could be aware."

"I have been taking this medication for 10 months for fibroids. I am soon to be 57 years of age. I had heavy monthly cycles. I have not had one period since I started. I am in hopes it takes me to menopause. I don’t want surgery. I do believe it’s starting to thin my hair out, at this point, it's no concern. Blood pressure has to be monitored. Some days I am really low, then some high. I am starting to notice a little dizziness. That’s why I am here today. But overall, worth it. Fingers crossed the cycle will be gone before my 2 years are up."

"Myfembree helped me regulate my hormones and decrease the size of my fibroids by about half in about 6 months. It's a very effective drug. It gave me absolutely zero side effects. It is as though I am taking a vitamin."
