Ladies... I have a question for you?

Okay so I had my period on Dec. 7 and it lasts like four days usually. But today is Dec. 24 and I have no clue what to call it but I have spotting I think it is. Well whatever the brown stuff is and I don't know why I have it. Mine also are every 27 days.

Update:

Well I ended it last December. But it may still be irregular. I am 18 and have had my period for 8 years now.

    sometimes stress or other things can bring it on, maybe go on the pill so this doesnt happen.

    You are just spotting between periods - nothing to be concerned about. A little blood sometimes leaks from where the lining is shed in the uterus. You can use a pantyliner if you feel more comfortable. Avoid scented pads or liners, they can cause itching and irritation.

    How old are you? How long have you been having period? Do you use birth control, did you miss any? Did you just start birth control? Lots of reasons why you could be spotting. Ask your gynecologist.
