I took Lysteda for about 18 months. It definately worked to reduce and control monthly bleeding. I began to suffer from joint discomfort however and discontinued this med to try low dose birth control meds instead. Within three months my joint pain has subsided immensely!

I am only 36 but after having my twins 7 years ago I have suffered with periods so heavy I feel like I need to wear a diaper just to get through the day! Since I have been taking Lysteda it's like a whole new world. I don't feel like I have to run to change every 15 minutes. Thank You!!!
