Hi,

Hormonal changes or imbalance could be the cause of irregular or early periods. I would suggest you to take a pelvic ultrasound to rule out any uterine or ovarian abnormalities. Pelvic ultrasound can detect any ovarian cysts, uterine wall thickening, endometriosis,uterine fibroids. Since you have mentioned weight gain,it is also essential to rule out any thyroid disorders which can also affect menstrual cycles.

Kindly check your TSH, Free T3, T4 levels and rule out any nutritional deficiencies like anemia. You may require a course of hormonal pills like Norethisterone or Medroxy-progesterone to regulate your menstrual cycles.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
