Answered by Dr. Swapna Chekuri
\Since your period has extended unusually and started with spotting, it could be due to hormonal imbalance, stress, travel, or a temporary cycle shift.
Nexamic 500 (tranexamic acid) is generally used to reduce heavy or prolonged bleeding, and it’s safe for short-term use if you have no history of clotting disorders. However, it’s always better to take it under a guidance of gynecologist, especially if bleeding continues beyond 2–3 days of medication.
As for the gym and weight lifting, light to moderate exercise is usually fine, but heavy workouts can increase strain and may slightly impact bleeding. It's best to avoid intense weight lifting until your bleeding settles.
If the bleeding continues for more than 12–14 days or gets heavier, please seek local medical care as it may need further evaluation.
