Hello,
Thanks for posting your query on health care magic.

This is a type of hypersensitivity reaction rarely seen soon after periods.
Since you have irregular periods , i recommend you to get an ultrasound done to rule out pathology.

Hope this helps. Feel free to ask if you have further doubts. I will be happy to help.
regards,
Dr Nilofer
