Please do not worry!

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for writing to us.
In my opinion you should wait and watch for your period, if it stops then it is ok.
If period continues, then consult a gynaecologist and get your examination done. To see a very rare cause of orange color period when patient on minera is actinomycosis( fungal infection).
I think I have answered your query if you have further question I will be happy to help you.
Good luck.
Regards
Dr. Richa
