Hello,
Thanks for posting your query on health care magic.
Menstrual bleeding any time from 1-7 days is considered to be normal.
Sometimes there could be variations in your bleeding pattern due to hormonal imbalance in the body. So you need not worry.
However you need to rule out implantation bleeding by doing a home urine pregnancy test.
Hope this helps.
regards,
Dr Nilofer
