Hello Rene,

I can understand your concern. Menstrual irregularities are very common in the perimenopausal women due to hormonal imbalance.

As your bleeding is incteasing with increasing intensity of pain, I would advise you to visit a gynecologist and go for blood tests for hormonal levels. Based in the results, hormone replacement therapy can be started. You might also need to take iron supplements and tranexamic acid tablets.

I hope this information helps. Thank you for choosing HealthcareMagic. I wish you feel better soon!

Best,
Dr. Viraj Shah
