General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi,

Your symptoms could be due to hormonal imbalance, adenomyosis/fibroid, endometriosis, pelvic inflammatory disorder, thyroid imbalance, polyp. I would suggest to consult gynecologist and undergo vaginal examination, reproductive thyroid hormone analysis, USG scan to confirm cause.

Specific treatment will depend on cause.Progesterone pill and tranexemic acid will help to reduce bleeding. Drink plenty of water, maintain proper pelvic hygiene, take healthy diet with iron supplements.

Hope this may help you. Contact further if follow up needed.

Best regards,
Dr. Sagar
