Without knowing more about the cause of your irregular bleeding, the tests that have been done (including what medications have been tried), and the nature of the irregularity (too much? too often? not often enough? too little?), it's not possible to comment. Please feel free to write again with more information. You might use my questions as a starting point for discussing your situation with your own gynecological health care provider. Best wishes.
