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