Question: Hi Doc,
Greetings !

Last time Tranexemic acid was advised to me for regulating periods
I had my periods for about 15 days and later after having Tranexemic acid tablet for 3 days thrice a day, periods were under controlled, almost stopped, but its not completely stop.
Please suggest what I should do ? Should I continue having tablets until its stopped ?
Do I have to take some medication after its done to regulate.

Regards,
