Hi,
Thanks for the query.
Excessive bleeding during periods can occur due to many causes.
Refer:http://srsree.blogspot.com/2013/12/menorrhagia-definition-causes.html
To control the bleeding the cause to be treated.
Undergoing ultrasound, thyroid profile etc will help in finding out the cause for the problem.
In case of hormonal imbalance, antifibrinolytic drugs only may not cure the problem.
You may need hormonal support.
Ovral b contains both estrogen and progesterone.
And in elderly women this is not advisable because of possible complications.
Instead you can go for progesterone only pills with your doctor's advice.

Take care.
