Several options: One might be to try a Progesterone withdrawal to go ahead and have a period. Important to understand your reporductive goals going forward in concert with how disruptive your abnormal periods are. This is a convo to have with your obgyn. If not interested in pregnancy birth control pills can make your bleeding less and more regular for example.

Common : It is common to have irregular heavy periods. It is more common when you have fibroids. Missing your cycle is also common. Irregular periods are most common when the fibroids invade the uterine cavity called the endometrium. The symptoms of abnormal bleeding are often caused by other problems as well including polyps, hormonal changes, infections (chlamydia) and cancer of the cervix or uterus.
