Should I expect any additional bleeding while using Vitalzym/VitalzymX for fibroids?
A. Women who are anemic or have heavy periods may experience some additional bleeding while on Vitalzym/VitalzymX. The enzymes in Vitalzym/VitalzymX are a mild blood thinner. If you experience additional or heavier bleeding, you may consider reducing your dosage of Vitalzym/VitalzymX during your period. If you are anemic, consider supplementing with iron temporarily. As your fibroids shrink, symptoms such as heavy periods will diminish, and you can continue with the higher doses of Vitalzym/VitalzymX during your period.
