HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern if you are on some hormone medicine before so such irregular menses is very common then, better to stop this medicine and wait for some time it will be fine soon, have bed rest as long as it is possible, if you are above 30 years then this could be menopause, hope this information helps, take care.
