Hi there, I have understood your concern and I will suggest you the best possible treatment options.
First of all do not panic.
As your USG report is showing no other pathology related to structural issues like fibroids or polyps, your symptoms are most likely due to hormonal changes.
Please rule out any chance being pregnant by getting morning's first sample of urine tested for pregnancy.
Please seek prescription support from your treating doctor for a 21 days course of low dose oral contraceptive pills to regulate your periods, and Tablet containing Tranexamic acid and Mefenamic acid as needed to control the present bleeding issue.
If symptoms recur then diagnostic Hysteroscopy with endometrial biopsy is advisable.
I hope this answer helps you.
Thanks.
