Are There Any Side Effects Of Taking Fibrastal?

I have been taking Fibrastal for one month now and am concerned about my moods and rapid facial hair growth. I am having very sad thoughts and then very violent thoughts. I am also shaving my upper lip daily and plucking my whole face daily. This is a very new medication and I am worried about these side effects.

Hi,

I am Dr.Bruno. I have read your question with care and understand that you are taking Ulipristal for one month now.

Ulipristal is an emergency contraceptive. It is better not to take that more than once. It is better to use Regular Oral Contraceptive Pills instead

However, if you are using this for Uterine Fibroids, it is justified

Coming to your question proper, the side effects of Ulipristal are Hot Flushes
Cramps, Heavy bleeding, Abdominal or stomach pain, Headache, Nausea
unusual tiredness or weakness, Dizziness

Sad Thoughts, Hair Growth have not been reported

Hope you found the answer helpful.

If you need any clarification / have doubts / have additional questions / have follow up questions, then please do not hesitate in asking again. I will be happy to answer your questions.

Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care.
