Hi, I feel that before starting on medications, we should look into the cause of irregular periods. Firstly you should get your thyroid hormones level, in case your thyroid status is controlled, then you should get your ultrasound pelvis to look for any abnormslity in uterus or ovaries. Hope it helps.
