Suggest Treatment For Heavy Bleeding During Periods

I ve been taking norithindrone for 3 months now for extremely heavy periods. Dr s had no diagnoses for the heavy periods. Couldn t find anything wrong. After 3 months my periods are still heavy & are now actually somewhat unpredictable. I was told the pills would slow it down & possibly at some point make it stop. How long on average does eiteither usually take?
