Hello
I share your concern
Irregular periods or spotting in between the periods could be related to number of conditions like
Hormonal imbalances
Infection
Endometrial hyperplasia
certain cancerous condition like cervical or ovarian especially near your age
Hypertension or bleeding disorder

In my opinion you should consult a gynaecologist for physical examination and investigation like hormonal study or an ultrasound to establish a diagnosis and accordingly its treatment.
Meanwhile maintain good hygiene
you should take iron and multivitamin supplements to balance the excess blood loss or correct anaemia.
