No more periods for women. However, that may not be a selling point:
Some 60% of these women indicated they are, at the least, “interested” in the idea of putting their periods on hold. Many women unburdened themselves with complaints about that time of the month. The most common gripes were “cramping” and “changing pads/tampons.”But Wyeth has also found that many women aren’t likely to become customers for Lybrel. About half of women agreed with the statement that their period comforts them because “it lets me know I am not pregnant.” On that score, in studies, Lybrel was about 98% effective in preventing pregnancy. One study showed that nearly all women who stopped taking Lybrel returned to having their periods within three months.
