Hello,

You are suffering from Dysfunctional uterine bleeding. You should get yourself checked by a gynecologist.

She may run a few tests like ultrasound, Pap smear and endometrial biopsies. Your treatment may consist of hormonal therapy, dilatation and curettage or surgery depending on the diagnosis.

Some of the common cause s of Dysfunctional uterine bleeding is uterine fibroids, endometrial hyperplasia, and ovarian cysts. It is important to get yourself checked as soon as possible.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
