Hi

Irregular periods can be due to hormonal irregularities. In your case, this pinkish orange bleeding can be due to infection also. I would suggest thyroid profile test and prolactin test done, as thyroid abnormality can lead to these symptoms.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
