Hi
Dr. Purushottam welcomes you to HCM virtual clinic!
Thanks for consulting at my virtual clinic. I have carefully gone through your case, and I think I have understood your concern. I will try to address your medical concerns and would suggest you the best of the available treatment options.
1] very rarely few women experience post menstrual spotting. As it was a regular period and no history of sexual activity, do not worry about pregnancy.
2] This is due to asynchronous shedding of the lining of the womb- endometrium.
3] I usually suggest use of Vitamin C, tranexamic acid for a period of 3 to 5 days. Of course you will need doctors prescription for tranexamic acid .
4] Apart from spotting, for other symptoms use of B LONG F, Vitamin E 400 mg, and PRIMOSA will be of help if taken on daily basis for 3 months. These are nutritional supplements that work best as medicines.
5] For your acne problem - I will suggest to avoid bakery products and deep fried foods.
Applying Erythromycin ointment and washing face 3 to 4 times a day with a good quality face wash, will be of help.
I hope my answer helps you.
Thanks.
Wish you great health.
