Hello dear
Understand your concern
Following are the causes of irregular bleeding.
Dysfunctional uterine bleeding due to hormonal imbalance
Ovarian cyst/PCOS
Endometrial dysplasia/cancer, endometriosis, adenomyosis/fibroid
Any blood disorder, thyroid disorder.
I advice you to consult the gynecologist and go for following investigations:
Reproductive hormone and thyroid hormone analysis, USG scan, Ovarian follicle study, endometrial biopsy, Blood coagulation profile
Doctor will give specific treatment according to cause.
Oral contraceptive pill or progesterone will be used to regularize the period and decrease the amount and duration of bleeding.
Tranexamic acid can be used while during period to decrease the amount of bleeding. Take healthy diet with iron, vitamin E, C supplements.
Hope this may help you
