Hello dear
Understand your concern

I think following causes in irregular menstrual period:
Ovarian cyst/polycystic ovarian syndrome.
Hormonal imbalance
Thyroid dysfunction.
I advice you to go for following investigations:
Reproductive hormone analysis and thyroid hormone analysis.
USG scan and ovarian follicle study.
Generally period can be regularize by prescribing following medicine:
Oral contraceptive pill for 4-6 months and progesterone only pill can be given second half of the cycle.
Take multivitamin tablet, continue exercise & yoga, fresh fruits and green leafy vegetables.
Drink plenty of waters daily (2-3 liters)
So consult the gynecologist and go for investigations and take proper treatment.
Hope this may help you
