15 yo periods

DD has always struggled with her periods (like I did) but they're getting worse.

She has full on bleeding for at least 6 days, often flooding through tampons/pads/underwear.
She is also passing huge clots with horrendous cramping.
Most moths she is off school at least 1 day.

She was on tranexamic acid for a while but it didn't make any difference.

Is the pill her next option? My concern is that she gets migraines so it may not be suitable.

I only recently became aware (due to my dd's experiences) that there is a link between low vitamin d and bad/heavy/long periods.
