Hi,
I would suggest you to modify your lifestyle, reduce weight, exercise daily, get 30 mins sunlight, eat green leafy vegetables and fruits and drink plenty of water. As you are 45, you are perimenopausal so you can get your periods delayed by 3 months followed by heavy bleeding due to hormonal changes. Take tablet Tranexa for heavy bleeding.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
