Hi,
The cause for the prolonged bleeding has to be assessed first, as there are many causes for such bleeding. Meanwhile she can be put on styptics to see if the bleeding arrests and if they do not work, hormonal therapy is needed after excluding organic causes for the bleeding. She should also be given nutritional supplements. Gynera is a well-tolerated oral contraceptive pill combination, used here to arrest bleeding. I suggest that your mother be shown to a gynecologist for a proper check up and management. Good luck.
