Although not often thought of as a home remedy, healthy eating and exercise can help to treat irregular bleeding. If you are having irregular periods, it’s best to make an appointment with a health care provider (HCP) to find out why your periods are irregular. Irregular periods can be caused from your hormones not being in balance, or from low weight, being super physically active, pregnancy, and some medication. When you talk to your HCP, be sure to tell him or her about all the medicines you’re taking, including birth control.
