It can be quite unsettling when this happens, but it’s not always a cause for immediate alarm. Often, the reason is simply a shorter menstrual cycle. If your cycle is around 21-24 days, it’s mathematically possible to have a period at the very start and end of a month.
Hormonal fluctuations are another common culprit, especially during puberty or perimenopause. Significant stress, travel, or changes in your routine can also disrupt your cycle temporarily.
Whilst a one-off instance is usually nothing to worry about, it’s wise to keep an eye on it. If it happens for a few consecutive months, or if the bleeding is unusually heavy or painful, it’s best to have a chat with your GP for some peace of mind.
