Brief Answer:
This is suggestive of dysfunctional uterine bleeding!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about these symptoms that you have reported. I have reviewed your information fully and this is suggestive of dysfunctional uterine bleeding. This is common in young women and is caused by hormonal imbalances. However, before concluding on this, we would like to exclude any other possible causes of bleeding that may be caused by infections, growths, cysts, bleeding disorders, etc. Though they remain possibilities, the most likely cause in your case is a hormonal imbalance.

This is often managed using oral contraceptive pills for 3 months. This restores the normal functioning of the hormonal axis and you can be taken off and re-evaluated. The best person to talk to in this case would be a gynecologist.

Body weakness is a sign of anemia and low blood. This is a direct consequence of frequent and heavy bleeding. I will recommend you take iron supplements to compensate for this loss.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Thank you so much for using our services and feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
