Can I reduce heavy menstrual bleeding post-abdominoplasty with enoxaparin?
Hello, I am a 52-year-old woman who underwent abdominoplasty 5 days ago and I am currently using enoxaparin daily. Unfortunately, my menstrual period has also started and I am bleeding heavily. Is there any medicine that I can use to reduce the bleeding?

This can occur for several reasons. The enoxaparin medication may also lead to increased flow. To help manage it, consider taking ibuprofen, an over-the-counter pain reliever. It can reduce bleeding volume. However, always consult your gynecologist or surgeon first. .
