instruction: hello doctor my height is 7 and I weigh about 159 pounds I am a male with anemia I got a colonoscopy but they could not stop the bleeding so I got a transfusion and I also got another colonoscopy to make sure that the bleeding stopped I have to get another colonoscopy between 6 months from the first colonoscopy I went to see my primary care doctor and they gave me some iron pills to be taken for three months which are over the counter called ferrous sulfate I went to see the gastroenterologist last month and they told me to come back this month to make an appointment to get another colonoscopy I cannot get in touch with my doctor right now because of the couid 19 I wanted to know that if I still have symptoms of anemia could I take some more iron pills or three months is enough
output: hi you have mentioned that you had bleeding per rectum and you had gone for the colonoscopy can you share the report of colonoscopy so that I can know what was the cause of bleeding it is perfectly safe for you to continue the iron medicines until the time you get an appointment with your regular doctor
