Hi,
Thanks for your query.. I understand your concern.
The irregular profuse & prolonged bleeding not controlled by oral contraceptives .. needs further detailed examination. Finding the cause & then specific treatment according to cause found.
I think you need a complete hormonal assessment to pin point the cause of hormonal imbalance/ USG abdomen( to detect fibroid uterus, ovarian cyst/ endometriosis( laperoscopy/ imaging investigations. )...as per advise by a gynecologist after a detailed physical examination./ D& c procedure for treatment as well as treatment purpose.
thanks.
So you have to consult a gynecologist
