hi, you may haveb itp plus some othe problem also. definitly you bleed more with itp. but itp bleeding generallly not stopped fully with pause mf tablets. for itp steroids or Iv Ig is required. moreover tell me what is your platelets count. so consult gynecologist to search cause of your heavy bleeding. if they find any other cause then take treatment of that. and if only itp i there then start treatment of that according to your doctors advice.
