Your question?: Not sure what your question is but you may be having cycles during which you don't ovulate. The bleeding you describe is called "dysfunctional uterine bleeding." It can cause complications including iron deficiency anemia and endometrial hyperplasia (abnormal thickening of the uterine lining.) Please make an appointment with your Gyn doctor.
