Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
I think you should go for evaluation first. Get a thyroid profile and prolactin level and an ultrasound done to see uterus and ovaries to find out the cause of irregular periods. It can be due to some thyroid disorder or polycystic ovarian syndrome. You may need some hormonal treatment.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Khushboo Priya
