Hi,
It is a matter of concern this heavy bleeding. I think your doctor should give you norethisterone. You should check total blood count and platelets count. Also check if you are taking any blood thinning medication.
If you are near menopause you can use hormone replacement therapy.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
