Hormones may help: This menstrual pattern indicates that communication between your brain and ovaries is disrupted. Likely, you do not regularly ovulate. Progesterone is used to stop bleeding. More important, is to find the cause of the bleeding. You may have polycystic ovary syndrome (pcos). A pelvic ultrasound and a blood test can confirm pcos. Pcos is usually treated with hormonal birth control.
