Hi welcome to health care magic forum.
The drug desogen has a side effect of the irregular periods, as your daughter had continuous bleeding will cause the anemia, which in turn can cause the excess bleeding again.
I advise you to consult your doctor for change of the pills, with different composition which may not not have such side effects.
Give her more of green leafy vegetables, pulses, sprouts, and protein rich foods to compensate the blood loss by building the blood.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery.Thank you.
