Irregular periods cycles and large clumpy blood clots during the cycle

I am a 21 year old woman. For the last 1 year plus I have been having irregular period cycles. Sometimes, I even miss my period for 3 months. And during my period cycle, the blood is always clumpy. The clumps can be fairly large most of the time. What could be my problem?
