Hi,
Thanks for the query.
She can start progesterone pills now as suggested by your doctor.
Cervical biopsy report won't influence this treatment.
If her D&C report is normal that is sufficient.
Once check for thyroid profile.
As in hypothyroidism also heavy periods are common, better to check once.
If there is fluctuation in the thyroid hormonal levels, adjustment of the dose is needed.
After starting progesterone pills in 2 to 3 months, the periods may get regularized.
Take care.
