Question : Hi I am 30 unmarried and have history of Hormonal Imbalance/PCOS, I started my period on the 24 th of April and still continues, my gynaec prescribed Sylate for 3 days and then advised to take Duolton for 21 days. The bleeding seemed lesser so I did not take the Duoloton and started Homeopathy treatment, but the bleeding has not stopped yet. Can I now start Duoloton to stop the bleeding?
