It's crucial to consult with your dad's doctor or a pharmacist to adjust his medication regimen, given his recent surgery and blood pressure fluctuations. It's likely that the surgery and anesthesia may have temporarily impacted his blood pressure, but the recurrence of attacks warrants attention. The doctor will need to assess the cause of the attacks (whether related to surgery, medications, or other factors) and adjust the dosage or type of medication accordingly. It's also important to ensure he is following a healthy lifestyle (diet, exercise, stress management) to help manage both diabetes and hypertension

I'm on day 4 of my cycle and my doctor started me on Siphene 50mg because I had irregular egg sizes last month. Ive been taking it since day 2, but I noticed my period unexpectedly stopped around 3.5 days. Usually, it lasts at least 5 days. Could Siphene be the reason my bleeding stopped earlier this time? Id really like to understand what's going on.

Siphene may have caused a shorter or lighter period in your case, which can sometimes happen as a result of hormonal changes or adjustments. Its not typically known to stop menstrual bleeding altogether, but it can influence the menstrual cycle. If you're concerned, its best to check with your doctor, who may want to monitor your endometrial lining and overall response to the medication.
