Hi Eli thank you for writing us here.
Heavy menses are as age advances. Also I would suggest you to get a gyne checkup and an USG to see if there are nodules or fibroids which are most common causes of abnormal utrine bleeding. You can take the hormonal pills so your menses are regular but I strongly advise you to see a gynecologist.
God bless you.

Best regards,
Dr Gunjan
