Question : My periods are regular but on 2nd day I bleed for 2 to 3 pads. Before due to low HB doctor gave medicine my bleeding came into control, improved my diet, but want to know if it is ok to take 2 to 3 tablets of trapic mf on 2nd day to reduce some bleeding. Now I have 12.8 hb, 29 years, and I asked one of nurse and she said I can take it. Last month also I took and came to control, so now is it ok to take again this month?? Is there any side effects or just normal doctor?? Need your advice thankyou.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Thanks for sharing your health concern with us.

I have gone through your query and would like to offer some information.

You can use the medication as needed for heavier bleeding days but I would not recommend regular use. Two tablets per cycle are a very low dose and hence unlikely to pose any risk, but again, please don't make it a regular habit. Instead, check if there is any underlying cause for the bleeding.

Hope this helps. Please let me know if I can assist you further.

regards,
Shanti.V.
