Brief Answer:
previous history needed
Detailed Answer:
Hello dear, I understand your health concerns.
It is very unusual to have such symptoms at your age.
I would like to ask certain questions -
- if this is the first time that you are bleeding heavily in periods
- whether you are sexually active
- if sexually active then what contraceptive are you using
- history of such complaints in other family members.
Waiting for your response

Brief Answer:
treatment advised
Detailed Answer:
I understand the whole problem now.
It is all related to the miscarriages only and that has played with your hormone axis badly.
Take tablet norethisterone 10 mg twice a day for 3 days and then take 5 mg twice a day for another 18 days.
After leaving the same you will get your periods which can be a little heavy.
Then start tablet crisanta or XXXXXXX (oral pills usually given for contraception) once a day and complete the pill pack.
Take these pills for at least 3 cycles.
By above measures your cycle will normalize and give you contraception also.
All the best.
