Hi, I think you should consult a gynecologist for complete examination. Get a pelvic examination done to rule out any cervical pathology. Also get a ultrasound done to see endometrial thickness. If it is more than 4 mm, go for an endometrial biopsy to rule out any endometrial pathology. You can take some medicines like tranexamic acid to stop the bleeding. Hope it helps.
