Hi,

I understand your issue.
I suggest that you first get yourself evaluated about the cause of irregular periods. Commonest causes are hormonal disturbances like thyroid and prolactin abnormalities and PCOD [polycystic ovarian disease].

In PCOD any one or many from a group of hormones regulating the menstrual cycle are abnormal leading to irregular or heavy bleed. Ovarian cysts may also produce similar symptoms. You will need an examination by a gynecologist and an ultrasound with hormonal profile tested on day 2 or 3 of menses to determine the cause.

Further treatment will be as per the abnormality. I also recommend that you start regular exercise and eat healthy food like fruits and cereals and avoid fat and sugars. This also helps in restoring the hormonal mileu and correcting irregular periods.

Hope this was helpful.
