Specializes in General Surgery

Not more than 1/day: Your doc probably wants you on oral iron therapy due to anemia. Uterine fibroids can cause bleeding and so can surgery. Okay to take the prescribed or recommended amount. Don't take more than one per day. Okay to ask your doc what your anemia/blood level is before and after surgery. Good luck.
