This drug has done wonders for my heavy "flooding" periods. My bleeding has decreased by 50%. I have noticed my period lasts a day or 2 longer, but it is lite bleeding. I do recommend taking this. My alternative would be surgery and I really do not want to do that. My sister had a hysterectomy. That was prior to the FDA approval. I am grateful.

This pill does help minimize heavy bleeding. I use to have severe clotting during my cycles and when I take the pills it has lessened some. This is just my second menstrual cycle taking the pill (I am 49). However, this time, I did notice the chest pains others have mentioned. It is not severe, but I have never had it before taking this pill. Also, both months, I did not take the pill as directed....

I started to expericence prolonged & heavy periods on occasion. I was diagnosed as being pre-menipausal. My first time used was on vacation, and it was wonderful. I was able to be active without heavy pads and numerous trips to the restroom. I have used it on an as neededed basis the following months, and have had good results. I would reccommend this a try if you have experienced longer or heavier than ususal periods! Of course, your doctor will have to go through various tests to make sure your ok before prescribing.

I just use this drug when I nosebleed. During my lastepisode, I noticed that the bleeding was quite prolonged than usual. It took effect an hour or so after taking the drug. I still needed to pump epinephrine on my nostrils.
