Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
In my opinion, your symptoms are mostly due to hormonal imbalance.
Contraceptive pills can cause hormonal imbalance and this causes menstrual abnormality.
So better to consult gynecologist and get done clinical examination and hormone levels.
You may need hormone pills according to the report to regulate your hormones.
Once your hormones are normal, you will get regular menses.
Don't worry, you will be alright with all these.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
