Menometrorrhagia – Symptoms, Causes & Treatment

Iron Supplements

Heavy bleeding during menometrorrhagia leads to a loss of iron in the blood. This makes people with the condition more vulnerable to anemia. To reduce the risk, the doctor would need to do a complete blood count and prescribe iron supplements to compensate for the loss. They are often available in tablets and can be purchased in many drug stores or pharmacies. You should take them once per day after each meal to prevent constipation. In more serious cases, iron supplements can be injected. [11]
