Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Often changes in menstrual flow have to do with hormonal shifts. This should self-regulate in a few months. If it does not, then you may need to go on birth control pills for a few months to straighten out the hormones.
See your doctor for a check for anemia if the heavy bleeding persists or if you begin to feel fatigued easily.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Kathy Robinson
