Hello Atiya,
Welcome on the forum,its good to see another married thal,that proves that thals can live a normal life,can you tell us what are your ferritin levels and how often do you transfuse?
High iron levels can effect your glands and in result hormones so it would be great if you have controlled ferritin level,we have a few members who are thal majors and moms also.
For hep C ,recently one of our members tried a combination of honey and Nigella ( kalonji) and found it really useful ,You can read about it in this thread.

Welcome once again and feel free to ask any questions you have in mind.
Zaini.
Andy Battaglia:
Please do try nigella for hepatitis. Milk thistle is also known to purify and heal the liver and actually help liver tissue to regenerate.
As far as the periods, this is the result of iron overload and that must be addressed before you can consider pregnancy. If you do have high iron, you need to chelate aggressively to reduce the iron load, and I would highly recommend antioxidants like vitamin E and IP6 to help prevent damamge to your glands.
