Brief Answer:
It can be a normal physiological change.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear,

Thanks for trusting hcm about your health care.
I can understand your concerns.
Menstrual cycle is regulated by hormonal levels and it can changed by some non pathological conditions like anxiety, stress, diet changes, weight changes and sleep pattern.
Some causes of irregular cycles are hormonal disturbances, PCOD, fibroid, thyroid disorder and infection.
In women life some or other day they may get disturbances in menstrual cycle and it is considered normal.
In your case as you are not having any symptoms and flow was normal, you should not take so much stress.
If it persist for 2-3 cycles than consult a Gynecologist and get yourself examined and rule out the above mentioned causes.
Hope it is useful, feel free to discuss more questions.
Good luck.
