You are not having a menstrual period every two weeks. You are having abnormal vaginal bleeding that has nothing to do with menstruation.

It is unlikely lab work can determine the cause of this abnormal bleeding. You need to make an appointment with a gynecologist for some further testing.

Hopefully this is a benign issue (for example, a uterine fibroid that has grown into a blood vessel as it expands) and not something more serious to your health. Please get this looked into in more detail now.
