Hello XXXXXXX
Thanks for writing to us with your health concern.
She needs to be evaluated for the reason for irregular periods.
Also, the reason for post coital spotting / bleeding.
You need to consult a Specialist Gynecologist.
Please have an internal examination, a Pap smear, a pelvic ultrasound scan and hormonal levels - FSH, LH, TSH, Prolactin.
What is her height and weight ?
Conditions such as stress, anxiety, weight changes, unaccustomed exercise, lack of sleep, change in diet etc can also impact periods.
Has she taken any emergency contraceptive pills , or is she on any hormonal medication ?
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Take care.

Thanks for immediate response.
Her height is 5 feet 3 inches and weight is 41 kg.
She has taken the contraceptive pills only once I.e last year only.
Also she is not on any hormonal medication.
is this related to pregnancy or other health issues.
She is at her native place and don't have access to good hospital .She will be back after one month. Should I ask to come back immediately and have check up or we can wait for her planned trip to end and then do the check up .please advise.
