Hi, I understand your concern. You had bleeding twice in a month with 10-11days gap.the cause depends on age . - In fertile age, abortion is the first consideration- though it's less possible in your case as you had regular menses to start with. - Pre Menopause is characterized by such unpredictable & irregular bleeding. - Hormonal imbalance due to PCOD, ovarian/thyroid problems may cause it. - vaginal polyp/fibroid uterus or malignancy may be the causative factor. Please don't worry. Consult a gynecologist.After physical examination & investigations certain diagnosis will be found followed by specific treatment. Thanks.
