What Causes Periods With Heavy Flow And Prolongs For Days?

Sometimes I won t have my period for 2 months, (I m not worried about pregnancy because I choose to remain abstinent), but then when I do have it, it s extremely heavy and lasts a long time. Is this normal? Is there anything I can do to help regulate?
