It sounds like you have something called oligo-ovulation. You may not be producing an egg every month. the easiest thing to do is to give you birth control pills. I don't like the name birth control pills because I can be used them mostly for abnormal bleeding, chronic pelvic pain, endometriosis, and perimenopausal bleeding. But they won't let me call them abnormal bleeding chronic pelvic pain endometriosis perimenopausal pills.if you got on the birth control pill more than likely it would regulate your. menstrual cycle.
