Been taking this for one week. Previsously was on transmaric acid Had the most horrendous period ever having to change pad every half an hour. Flooding for about 2 hours for 2 days. Everything is fine now. Feel a little light headed at times. I just now feel at bit panicked. I now this should stop periods but I just have this fear of just flooding at anytime. Consultant didn't really explain much to me I was in the consultation for about 10 mins. Has anyone had any bad experiences from taking this. Think I'm just looking For a bit of reassurance. Thanks

Hey! I was on Esmya for 3 months. The bleeding stopped, so it's was great relief. I experienced some side effects, like depression (I know it was Esmya as when I stopped it I don't have depression any more at all), hot flushes and tiredness. Unfortunately after the treatment my fibroids didn't shrink and I am bleeding again. I think not as hard as before, but I don't know for sure because the bleeding started a week ago. But I contacted other person here in the blog and she told me her fibroids had shrunk, so there is hope!!! 😊😊let me know if I can help you with more info.
