About LYSTEDA

How LYSTEDA Works

Lightens periods by helping your body’s natural mechanism of controlling heavy menstrual flow.

LYSTEDA helps restore a natural process in your body to reduce the excessive bleeding of your heavy periods.

Non-hormonal LYSTEDA has been shown to significantly lighten heavy monthly bleeding, and it can work as early as the first period you take it!*

If you’re looking for lighter periods without the worry of hormones or surgery, ask your healthcare professional about LYSTEDA.

LYSTEDA is a non-hormonal prescription drug FDA approved to treat Heavy Monthly Bleeding. Could LYSTEDA be right for you?

Women who have or who have had a history of clots in their blood vessels should not take LYSTEDA. The risk of serious blood clots may be increased when LYSTEDA is taken with hormonal contraceptives.

* LYSTEDA was consistently effective in clinical trials across every month it was studied, including the very first month. In two clinical studies LYSTEDA reduced Heavy Monthly Bleeding by 38% and 39% compared with 12% and 5% with placebo (sugar pills).
