Hi monica2356,

It sounds like an off period, which can happen now and then. See how it goes over the next few days. Periods sometimes will start a bit sooner or later than the norm, often for no apparent reason.

If you continue to bleed for much longer than you normally would, then you could always contact your doctor.
