Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Thyroid disorder can cause menstrual disturbances. There might be excessive bleeding in case of hyperthyroidism and low bleeding in case of hypothyroidism. However we have to rule out gynecological condition before making a conclusion. As of now you can take drugs like Traneximic acid or Ethamsylate to arrest the flow. Get a thyroid function test(TFT) done to assess the thyroid status. If bleeding persist consult a gynecologist and get evaluated.

Wishing you good health
Thanks
