Hello,
The short cycle is quite common in the early part and will revert to the normal pattern.
If there is excessive bleeding or pain, you can seek help from a gynecologist.
If the cycles are irregular, we have to think of possibilities like PCOS.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
