What Causes Irregular And Heavy Menstruation?

I ve been having an irregular menstrual cycle for the past 4 months. Most recently, I had a cycle that ended December 30th and I m currently on my cycle which started on January 13th. My cycles as of late have been accompanied with serious pain that goes to my lower back as well as my abdomen. The lining has been shedding a lot in big clots/clumps to the point where I can actually feel them. My cycle is very heavy and today seems like it s in overdrive. What could be the problem?

Hello,

As a first line management, you can try drugs like tranexamic acid to control bleeding.

If symptoms persist better to consult a gynecologist and get evaluated.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
