What Causes Intermenstrual Bleeding?

I ended my period then about 10 days later I started bleeding (dark brown) it was more than spotting but less than my regularly heavy period. It stopped after about 4 days. Then 5 days later I m bleeding again! This time its red like my period but I know it s not because my period is a way lot heavier also not due until about another week and I m usually never early but for the past couple months have been 2/3 weeks late on my periods... Why have I been bleeding mostly the whole month? It s not enough to where I have to wear a tampon but I do have to wear liners and when I wipe after urination there s quite a bit of blood

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi,

It is normal for a lady to have variations in cycle day and frequency once in a while. This is due to variations in hormones due to stress or some other reasons. This bleeding after a gap was due to some small blood clots that remained during first periods. Therefore there is nothing to worry as this is a normal event and don't worry about it.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Ivan R. Rommstein, General Surgeon
