From your description, it sounds like two periods in one month. Is this your feeling, too?
To re-iterate:
Beginning of October: regular period
1-2 weeks later: started to spot, turned to light bleeding for 3-4 days, cramping
Have you ever experienced irregular cycles before? Many women have "strange" periods like this, where they have two periods in one month, or miss a period completely. This can be normal, or it may be a symptom of a medical condition that can be evaluated by your doctor. Don't worry---it is most likely just an irregular cycle, especially if this is the first time it has ever happened. Many factors, like new medications, recent illness, excessive stress..can all cause bleeding in-between periods. You can always call your doctor, and talk with a nurse about your symptoms.
Are you taking any type of hormonal contraception?
