Plain-language summary
Uterine Fibroids (UF) are noncancerous (benign) tumors that commonly occur in up to 80% of women of reproductive age. Symptoms can include heavy menstrual bleeding (HMB), low back pain, urinary frequency and urgency, gastrointestinal symptoms, and fatigue. In participants with UF, this study will prospectively assess changes in patient-reported quality of life and patient-reported effectiveness in controlling HMB when treated with elagolix, estradiol, and norethindrone acetate capsules; elagolix capsules (elagolix + E2/NETA).
Around 200 adult premenopausal female participants in the United States with a diagnosis of HMB associated with UF and are prescribed elagolix + E2/NETA by their physicians as per standard of care will be enrolled in this direct-to-patient observational study for up to 6 months.
Participants will have been prescribed elagolix + E2/NETA within the last 30 days prior to enrollment and will continue to take elagolix + E2/NETA throughout study participation.
There may be a higher burden for participants in this study compared to standard of care. Electronic patient reported outcomes (ePROs) will be collected at baseline, 1, 3 and 6 months to assess the impact of Elagolix + E2/NETA on patient-reported quality of life.

* Participants are premenopausal (i.e., still report experiencing menses).
Exclusion Criteria:
* Participants that report they are pregnant or planning to become pregnant in next 6 months.

Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
