I have gone through your query and can understand your concern...
Yes gynera pills are advisable for irregular menstruation. Gynera is a combined hormone contraceptive pill & contains female hormone estrogen & progesterone.

However there are some conditions in which you should not use these pill
1. If you are obese & have body mass index over 30 kg/m2
2. Positive family history of venous or arterial thromboembolism ( such as deep vein thrombosis). If a hereditary predisposition is known or suspected, the woman should be
3 If you ever had some heart problem such as heart attack , angina, valvular heart disease etc
4 If you have dyslipoproteinemia or high cholesterol problem
5.If you are smoker
