Brief Answer:
You might be having polycystic ovarian disease.
Detailed Answer:
Welcome to Health care magic. Thank you for posting your query.
I can understand your concern.
I have gone through the entire post . WHat I could make out from the symptoms and the "hormonal imbalance" as stated by your doctor , it seems you could be having polycystic ovarian syndrome.
It would have been great had I examined you on my own.
I would suggest you to
- Avoid oily, spicy food
- Exercise regularly to avoid weight gain
- Get a pelvic ultrasound to rule out the cause
- I would start oral contraceptive tablets . Your doctor can guide on the exact dosage.
About the trapic tablet or tranexamic acid, it is 500 mg a tablet - one tablet to be taken during heavy bleeding. You can take upto 3 tablets a day, but the dose depends on the symptoms and amount of bleeding.
I would suggest you to visit a gynaecologist . He/she can examine and correlate clinically.
Hope this helps.
Write back to us.
Have a nice day .
Regards.
