Is it normal for my light spotting to turn into heavier, period-like bleeding after taking Trapic MF, which was prescribed by my doctor following a medical abortion, and is this something I should worry about?
Following a medical abortion, your body is still clearing out the uterine lining, which can cause fluctuating bleeding. Trapic MF (tranexamic acid and mefenamic acid) is typically prescribed to help manage and reduce heavy bleeding. An increase to period-like bleeding can sometimes happen as remaining tissue passes, but it is important to contact your prescribing doctor to ensure you are healing safely. Please seek immediate medical care if you experience severe pain, fever, or bleed through more than two sanitary pads per hour for two hours in a row.
