My concern is, I got a period in October 13 and its end in October 16. After two weeks i have again , and its Oct 28 is the first day until now November 5.

What is this, and what does it mean? I am so confused what's happening on me now, because im just done of my period, and its too early to come I think. & its supposed to be on Nov 13 is my next period.

My regular period is 4 days only. I hope can help me to whats happening & what does it mean on this situation? Tnx for the answer.

Hi,

It is possible that you are experiencing metrorrhagia. It is a Bleeding in between menstrual periods. This is a common problem, especially for teenagers and women nearing menopause.

There are many reasons why women may have metrorrhagia. They are:
-hormone imbalance
-infection/inflammation of the uterus, cervix or vagina
-use of an IUD
-some medications, such as blood thinners
-stress
-cancer of the cervix

The treatment depends on the cause of the problem. For example, if you have a hormone imbalance, your healthcare provider may prescribe hormones. If an IUD is causing the problem, it will be removed. Erosion of the cervix may be treated by removing or destroying some of the cervical tissue.

If you have bleeding between periods for 2 months in a row, visit your healthcare provider.
