Is Bleeding Between Periods Normal?

I just wanted to verify that my bleeding between periods is normal: usually I bleed 10-11 days after my period begins (although it doesn t happen every month) but the bleeding is quite heavy and lasts around 3-4 days, which on top my very heavy periods is quite uncomfortable. I m 20.
