Hello ma'am and welcome.
The most common cause could be listed as follows:
-Abnormality of the uterus (eg. Polyps, fibroids, etc.)
-Abnormality of the inner lining of the uterus (eg. Endometrial hyperplasia, endometriosis, etc.)
-Infections
-Hormonal imbalance
Please discuss the same with your docto, ask for a confirmed diagnosis and seek treatment for the cause, not the symptom.
Hope this helps.
Best wishes.
