I've never taken this medication. It sounds like it is used in preparation for surgery. I had a successful myomectomy without any drugs like this when I was 38. Is it really necessary? It sounds like the fibroids just come back after you stop using it so why put your body through this? Just curious what your goals are?

Side effects were worse on Zoladex. Neither shrunk my fibroids. I'm back on Esmya now in preparation for a procedure which one I haven't decided yet, was considering UAE but arteries arent big so 50/50 chance of success. Would like a couple of months to get some weight off as infection can result in an open hystorectomy anyway. Hope this helps.

Hi all, I'm on day 19 of Esmya and so far I'm all over the place!
Definitely experiencing headaches, fatigue, pain in the fibroid area and still some spotting with so far one episode of flooding.
It feels as if I have a battle going on in my uterus!
