Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I understand your concerns.

Following is my reply:

1) Such bleeding episodes are due to some abnormality in uterus or hormonal variations.

2) You need to get blood test for hormones and an ultrasound scan. I suggest you please see your primary care physician soon.

3) You might be referred to a gynecologist for these tests and also biopsy if required.

Let me know if you need anymore help.
