What Causes Prolonged Vaginal Bleeding While Having PCOS?
Hi I am currently taking a POP to aid with my PCOS the past 3 months , unfortunately I bleed every week for at least 5 days and only get 2-3 non bleeding days! I am due to go on holiday this weekend and was wondering if it it possible to take any pill to stop bleeding while I am away ( I have started bleeding again today ) ?! Thanks S

Hello,
As first-line management, you can take drugs like tranexamic acid to control bleeding.
If symptoms persist better to consult a gynecologist and get evaluated.
The ultrasound abdomen is required for further assessment.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
