Hello,
If you are above 40,then you could be peri menopausal where irregular,heavy bleeding is possible.But if you are still in the reproductive age group,first thing take a pregnancy test to rule out failure of contraception.Next you need to get an ultrasound to look for pathology like fibroids etc.
