To be eligible for inclusion in this study the subjects must not meet any of the following criteria:
1. Subject has a large uterine polyp (> 2cm).
2. Subject has one or more ovarian cysts = 4cm diagnosed by ultrasound at visit 6 of PGL09-026.

Subject is likely to require treatment during the study with drugs that are not permitted by the study protocol: progestins (systemic or progestin releasing intra-uterine system), hormonal contraceptives, systemic glucocorticoids (oral and injectable), acetylsalicylic acid, mefenamic acid, anticoagulants such as cumarins, antifibrynolytic drugs such as tranexamic acid, treatments containing PgP substrates (digoxin, fexofenadine), and/or treatments containing moderate or potent inhibitors or inducers of CYP3A4.
4. Subject has abnormal hepatic function at re-test (defined as aspartate transaminase [AST], alanine transaminase [ALT], gamma glutamyl transferase [GGT], hepatic alkaline phosphatase, or total bilirubin above twice the upper limit of normal). A re-test will be performed if hepatic function test values are above twice the upper limit of normal at visit 5 of PGL09-026 study. If the second test result is still above twice the upper limit of normal, the subject cannot be included. In case of isolated GGT, the subject may be enrolled if the re-test is within the allowed limits.
