I agree with the doctor below. If you need iron tablets, there's a REASON for needing iron, like heavy periods, or bleeding in the stool. You don't just want to put a bandage on the problem. You want to find it and solve it. If you have ANY hormonal symptoms, including heavy bleeding, please follow the following protocol for 9 months (or forever):

'Want a quick and easy way to start balancing your hormones? Whether it's PMS, infertility, headaches, cramps or plain grumpiness, this simple addition to your day has been shown to help all of these! From day one of your period (the first day you bleed), take 2 TBSP of GROUND flax/chia/pumpkin seeds. Choose any seed you like, but be sure to grind them first. Flax seeds are conveniently sold ground already. Then, 2 weeks later (15 days from start of bleeding), switch to ground sunflower or sesame seeds. If your period is very irregular, you can use the moon cycle: day 1 of the month is the new moon. Then, on the full moon switch to sunflower/sesame seeds. The flax/chia/pumpkin seeds contain oils and compounds that support estrogen, and the other seeds support progesterone, right when we need it. Because this is very powerful, do not use this if you are using any kind of hormonal contraception. Do not use if you are allergic to any of these seeds. You can start this any day of your cycle. There is no need to wait until day 1.'

FLAX IS FIRST; SESAME IS SECOND!
