"I took Lybrel or the generic equivalent Amethyst for many years. In the first years, I found it worked very well for me, and I loved it. I never had a period! Then I needed to take NSAIDs regularly for osteoarthritis, which caused constant breakthrough bleeding along with endometriosis symptoms. Whenever I discontinued use of the Lybrel to keep my lining from becoming so thin, my periods were debilitating and extremely heavy. Just started on Reclipsen with hopes of better results. I recommend this pill for anyone who does not regularly take any meds that can cause blood thinning."
