A Phal in bloom will take a lot of strength from the plant but when the flowers are done the plant starts to grow.

I sometmes get small leaves on Phals in bloom which grow rapidly after the flowers are done.

But with a stressed plant that has droped most of its flowers I would cut them off and discard them or if still nic treat as a cut flower it will not grow roots.
