    Hi Jay, my understanding is that Esyma should make your period lighter to shrink the fibroids, doesn’t look is working for you. I was on mini pill and took tranexamic acid with. You can go to your gp and say it doesn’t work but they may say it takes a while until it works. You do have a nasty fibroid, the worse for bleeding. 

    If if you don’t mind me asking where do you have your operation done? Perhaps check with the gynaecologist who will operate you about Esyma, see what says. Also if your operation is in a few weeks ask your gp if you can stop taking it. 

    Good luck with your surgery.
