Can Intake Of Tranexamic Acid And Mefenamic Cause Clotting In Next Cycle?
Hi. I am Aastha. I would like to know if taking Tranexamic acid + Mefenamic acid to stop excessive bleeding during periods causes excessive clotting in the next cycle? I took this medication last month and this month I am getting heavy clotting; like nothing I ve seen before!

Hello,
If tranexamic acid was prescribed by your doctor, I think you should consult with him/her again about stopping taking this medication this time.
To me, you should be using only mefenamic acid this time. If you will notice excessive bleeding, then, take tranexamic acid.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
