I have been prescribed Qlaira for heavy periods and excessive bleeding. I might have endometriosis but they didn't prove it yet. Qlaira stopped my excessive bleeding the very next day after taking the first pill. I also didn't notice any major side effects beside a little soreness in my breasts. My skin is crystal clear. I suffer from PMDD very bad and have bad pains in my abdomen during ovulation. It fixed all of these issues in the first month and I'm happy. My vaginal lubrication improved as well. Mood swings improved significantly.
Very positive mood
