Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hello, I m 19 and I started using the program earlier this year, however lately I ve been experiencing a prolonged menstruation cycle. I ve been menstruating from the 26th of November and today is the 9th of December (14days) it doesn t hurt, just highly discouraging and reduces my willingness to be social. What do I do?
Hello dear I understand your concern Your symptoms could be due to hormonal imbalance, polyp, fibroid, coagulation defect, cervix/endometrial dysplasia. I would suggest to consult the gynecologist and undergo vaginal examination, reproductive hormone analysis, USG scan and PAP smear/colposcopy. Specific treatment will depend on the cause Progesterone pill and tranexemic acid will help t reduce the bleeding Take healthy diet with iron supplements and maintain proper pelvic hygiene Hope this may help you
