Patient's Query

Hi doctor,

I was taking Notence 0.5 milligrams. I started taking it on the first day of my period to stop my period. I took the pill for two days but stopped as I saw I continued bleeding. I am worried that my period will continue after it.

What should I do?

Thank you.

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I read your query and understand your concern.

Who asked to take this medicine which will stop your menstruation?

Mention the contents of this medicine. Because according to my knowledge, this medicine is used for anxiety, not to stop menstrual bleeding. You should not take any medicines without consulting a doctor. How can you just play with your health?

Attach the image of the medicines so that, according to the contents, I can help you.

Thank you.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
