Hey, I'm wondering if it's safe for me to take Orofer XT tonic for women. I've got low ferritin levels, but my hemoglobin is at 12. I came across a review that mentioned it could cause prolonged periods, and that kind of freaked me out. I don't have any symptoms at the moment. Can you help me figure out if it's okay for me to take it?

To prevent Rh incompatibility issues, administer Anti-D Immunoglobulin (Anti-D Ig) to the Rh-negative (O-) mother: - 1st dose: 300 mcg at 28-30 weeks of gestation - 2nd dose: 300 mcg within 72 hours of delivery (if baby is confirmed Rh-positive) This treatment helps prevent the mother's immune system from reacting to the baby's Rh-positive blood cells.
