Hallow Dear,
Probably you are suspecting bleeding due to abortion. It is likely. Heavy bleeding after delayed menses may be due to process of abortion - it may be threatened abortion or incomplete abortion. Please get your ultrasonography done. If there are any products of conception visualized in the uterine cavity, you are in process of abortion.
If the cervical opening is closed and complete baby is seen in the uterine cavity, you are having threatened abortion. If there is no pain in abdomen, it can be managed by bed rest and some Progestational preparation like Susten.
If the products are partly seen and/or the cervical opening is open, you are either having inevitable abortion or incomplete abortion. Then the uterine cavity will have to be evacuated.
If you are not pregnant at all, the bleeding could be due to hormonal imbalance. Blood examination for FSH, LH, Oestrogen, Progesterone, T3, T4 and TSH will throw some light on the cause of such bleeding.
Please report to your Gynaecologist.
