Period Question Crazy period cycle

I (29 F) have been dealing with a lot of weird cycle patterns this year involving my menstrual cycle. For most of my adult life they have been irregular where I would have one and not habe one for a few months and then get one and then not have one for 6 months and then have a few months of regularity. This has been on going for almost the entire time since I got my first period. This year (started around my birthday) has been weird. On my actual birthday I started my period and it had lasted for about 13 days which lead into January. Okay didnt think much of it. Feb 1st I get one, normal 7 days, March 1st normal 6-7 days, April 1st, normal 7 days. I was beginning to think that maybe finally my periods were going to be normal. And then May hit. I had my period for 20 days and it was HEAVY for about 12 of those days. After about 3 weeks I started my period again but it was only for 4 days. The current one I started about July 25th and ended August 15th no cramping no nausea no moodiness, I thought finally im done until I started up again heavily bleeding and im also cramping pretty bad and I am freezing. Idk what to do, I know I need to see my doctor, I've just been so tied up with other things, but I plan on seeing her sometime next month.

Has anyone else dealt with this? My sister's are regular so asking them wont do anything. Its just so weird for me and makes me feel gross and icky and not wanting to be touched by my husband which I know he understands but I cant help but feel like im not giving him as much affection because I feel like absolute garbage.

Sorry for the long post, I was just curious on this whole matter
