How old are you? I noticed you posted in child and teen health, so you must be young. How old were you when you had your first period?

Thank you for the info. Since you are still young, you still could be regulating. As you probably know, us women tend to have wacky periods every once in a while. While we may miss a month or two for no apparent reason, sometimes we can have two in one month.
Are you sexually active? Any meds or birth control? Have you lost or gained a significant amount of weight recently? How about stress. Are you under a lot of stress?

Yes I am sexually active. I just got done with finals so it might be stress. I did take birth control for a while, almost a year. No loss or gaining or weight that I know of though

When did you stop taking birth control?

Ok, so that would not be the reason for two in one month. I vote on stress. If it happens again next month, I would suggest you visit your doctor.
Do you have your yearly woman's exam that includes a PAP smear? If not, since you are sexually active, I would suggest you make an appointment.

I have a yearly checkup that's all though.

It may be something to track for a month or two and if it continues, make a doctor's appointment.

OK I will thanks. It has happened once before and then the next month I won't have one

This could be just because of your age, or it just could be the way you will regularly menstruate.
