Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

6 days is not too long to have a cycle however if it's really heavy bleeding then it should be concerned about. Causes may be many , duphostone is generally used for heavy bleeding as it helps stop bleeding so yes it can be used. However if it persists or any other problem it would be better to talk to gynaecologist to see the cause.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
