###Human: What shall I do for heavy periods and anemia? ###Assistant: Hi. I hope you are feeling better now. Have you been started on Iron tablets? I would suggest tablet Livogen XT (combination of Iron, Folic acid and Zinc sulfate) once at night with a glass of lime juice for better absorption. Consult your specialist doctor, discuss with him or her and take the medicine with consent. Continue the above for three months minimum. You will feel better in about one or two weeks. I also suggest a deworming medicine tonight and skip Iron tablet. A single dose of 400 mg Albendazole is sufficient. From tomorrow onwards restart the Iron tablets. This should take care of the anemia. With regards to the endometriosis, this is something that can only be confirmed by seeing with the eyes under a laparoscopy. If your doctor wants to take a look under laparoscopy, then you should consider it once your hemoglobin is back up. The advantage is that any endometriotic lesions can be burnt with cautery at the same time and if it is a fibroid which is causing these symptoms, then it can also be treated simultaneously by laparoscopy if it is average sized. Endometriotic cysts can also be treated if found at the same time. The rest of your scan sounds normal (attachment removed to protect patient identity) so do not worry.
