Hello,
You are 30/F, unmarried, your last LMP was delayed for a few days. Once you start to get your periods your bleeding didn't stop. One of the causes of heavy bleeding is anovulation — Anovulation occurs when your ovaries do not produce and release an egg (ovulate) once per month. Anovulation occurs in "lazy ovary". This causes your menstrual period to be irregular, absent or heavy bleeding.
The treatment is Hormonal birth control pills, which reduce bleeding during your menstrual period. Hormonal birth control can also reduce cramps and pain during your period. It might take three months for bleeding to improve after you start taking hormonal birth control.
Regarding this you have to start taking birth control pills, simultaneously take treatment for lazy ovary - adequate amount of right nutrients, oxygen through alkaline diet, systemic enzyme therapy as well as aggressive detoxification and colon cleansing.
Green super food like wheat cereal grasses, sprouts, and raw wholesome foods like tomatoes, cucumbers, asparagus, and bitters that help the detoxification work of the liver.
Best wishes

Hi, thanks for asking in Healthcare Magic.

Lazy ovary or Poly Cystic Ovary results on irregular menstrual cycle. It is due to hormonal imbalance . The birth control pills which your Dr gave contains both estrogen and progesterone. It will regularize your period.

Side effects vary from each individual. The common side effects are nausea, bloating sensation, headache, spotting, breast discomfort and mood changes. It can also result in weight gain, swelling of feet and acne.

Conditions like Pelvic inflammatory disease (PID) and endometriosis can also result in irregular and prolonged bleeding and these should be ruled out. Although cyclic hormonal therapy restores the normal menstrual pattern, treatment should be directed to the cause.

I hope this is useful to you.
