Hallow Dear,

Since you are having fibroids, do expect the bleeding for longer duration and on heavier side.

Ralovera is a medroxyprogesterone acetate preparation. In addition to progesterone effect, it helps controlling the bleeding. In addition, you have been prescribed Cyklokapron which is Tranexamic acid. Tranexamic acid is also used for controlling bleeding.

With the history of Uterine fibroids, I will advise you not to wait for the bleeding to stop; go for the Ralovera Ciklokapron therapy straight a way.

I hope your dilemma is resolved.
