Common adverse effects

Detailed Answer:
Hello mam, thanks for trusting health care magic.
I understand your anxiety about the issue but it is common and is seen in about 25-30% of cases.
Take tablet trenexemic acid three times a day and I hope it will be fine in 3-4 days.
In case it doesn't then visit your gynecologist for examination.
Regards
Dr Manisha
