For Menstrual Disorders "Used for the first time and it was great with slowing down the bleeding (literally shocked at how well) and allowed me the ability to carry on with life. The bleeding was lighter but still lasted 7 plus days. One major concern I had was in regard to passing clots. While normally heavy, I passed two extremely huge (much much larger than normal) clots. Hoping a result of just first-time using."

For Menstrual Disorders "I was diagnosed with fibroids, a tipped uterus, and a small ovarian cyst - causing extra heavy and erratic cycles. I really don't want surgery, so my GYN put me on Lysteda. I loved it for the first couple of months -- after the 2nd month, my cycle started occurring every 2-3 weeks. One month it did not happen at all. Then the last 2 cycles seemed to be normal - until the end, then they started all over again with clots and heavy bleeding. Back to my GYN. Looks like I may have to have the surgery after all."

For Heavy Menstrual Bleeding "I’ve suffered from heavy bleeding for years now. I do have uterine fibroids. My doctor has tried every medication under the sun for me, and this was my last option. Unfortunately, it did not work for me. I started Lysteda the first day of my cycle for three days and my cycle was actually worse. The clots were unbelievable and cramps like I was in labor. Very disappointed, I thought this would be my miracle medication. Glad it works for some. Never taking it again."

For Heavy Menstrual Bleeding "I've been taking this for 2 months now, been bleeding for 18+ months ... with small changes, slightly less bleeding, but it still won't stop ... the clots are also ridiculous as well."
