Lighter periods since a year

Hi, i started getting lighter periods a year back, It went from 3 days to 1.5-2.  i consulted a doctor and was asked get my CBC, Hba1c, tsh and serum prolactin tested. All of these came normal. She asked me to take FolMF123 supplements. The flow increased while taking these but then went back to the same situation. Now again when i contacted her, she asked me to do the same test along with USG of pelvis. The testz are normal again. The ultrasound result says polycystic pattern in both ovaries. My gyaneac said it will be reversed with diet and exercise. I have been under a lot of stress since last 8-9 months. She says this could be the main reason for my issue. Please advise.

Irregular periods

My periods started at age 14 and became irregular around age 15. At age 16, I was told that I had ovarian cysts and was prescribed medicines to regulate my periods. I was also given another large pink-colored tablet, but I don’t remember its name. After taking the medicines, I experienced sudden weight gain. I later consulted another doctor who said the previous medicine dosage may not have been appropriate. PCOD/PCOS was never confirmed. My periods are still very irregular—sometimes I don’t get them for around 3 months and sometimes up to 9 months. I want to know the possible cause and what tests or evaluation I need.
