Detailed Answer:
Hello Ma'am
I can certainly understand your concern
I have worked through your attached query in detail
As these bleeding episodes coincide with menstrual cycle it's advisable to rule out a condition called vicarious menstruation.
It's important to consider HRCT SCAN OF PARANASAL SINUSES to rule out nasal septal pathology responsible for bleeding from Throat.
If vicarious menstruation is confirmed, oral contraceptive medication will be helpful.
Consultation with a Gynecologist is mandatory.
Review with HRCT SCAN OF PARANASAL SINUSES to determine further course of action.
