Lillie Hall –
I had abnormal uterine bleeding for almost 5 years but the doctor couldn’t figure out the cause. I was advised to start taking megestrol and has been on it for almost 4 months and now, I no longer have my menstrual period continuously year-round. My lower back pain and abdominal pain is also gone. I’m thankful I got prescribed with the right medicine.
