Short answer

Tranexamic acid is a medicine that helps reduce bleeding and may also be prescribed in selected treatment plans for melasma.

This answers one question. It is not a diagnosis and does not replace an assessment by a licensed doctor.

What tranexamic acid does

Tranexamic acid helps stabilise blood clots, so it can reduce menstrual bleeding when prescribed for that purpose. In dermatology, some clinicians use it for melasma, a condition that causes darker patches of skin, after assessing whether it is appropriate. The route, dose, duration, and monitoring depend on the reason for treatment and the product used. A branded skincare or clinic treatment name does not replace checking the active ingredient and instructions.

Using it safely

Use tranexamic acid only as directed and tell the prescriber about previous blood clots, clotting disorders, kidney disease, vision changes, pregnancy, and medicines that affect clotting. Do not share tablets or change the schedule because bleeding has improved. For melasma, ask about sun protection and other topical options, since pigmentation can return when triggers continue. Keep a record of the product, route, and reason it was prescribed.

When to seek care

Stop and seek urgent medical help for sudden chest pain, trouble breathing, coughing blood, one-sided leg swelling or pain, new weakness, or sudden vision changes. Contact your prescriber for severe headache, persistent abdominal pain, allergic symptoms, or bleeding that remains heavy despite treatment. These symptoms need assessment rather than an extra dose.

Questions for your doctor

Ask which condition is being treated, why this medicine is suitable, how long to use it, which medicines or conditions make it unsafe, and what monitoring or alternative treatment is available.
