Is LYSTEDA Right for You?

How LYSTEDA is Different

LYSTEDA was approved by the FDA in late 2009 to treat Heavy Monthly Bleeding.

Here is what makes LYSTEDA different:

  • LYSTEDA directly treats your Heavy Monthly Bleeding without hormones by helping restore a natural process in your body that controls menstrual bleeding
  • LYSTEDA has been shown to significantly and consistently lighten heavy periods every month*
  • With LYSTEDA, you could have lighter periods each month and as soon as the 1st month*
  • Because LYSTEDA does not contain hormones:
    • You only need to take LYSTEDA during your periods, for up to 5 days.
    • You don’t have to worry about the symptoms or side effects that maybe associated with hormonal therapy
    • You can still choose to have children while treating your heavy periods

See safety and tolerability information for LYSTEDA.

* 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).
