Tranexamic acid during vaginal hysterectomy to reduce bleeding
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This trial studies whether giving tranexamic acid during a vaginal hysterectomy (uterus removal through the vagina) can reduce blood loss. It may help some people need less bleeding during surgery, if they are able to take the medicine safely.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are a woman age 20 to 90 having a vaginal hysterectomy
