Probably OK: It is not uncommon to have an irregular cycle or 2, as our cycles can be affected by any number of factors. However, if your are consistently (ie for 3 months) having your cycles every 17 days, they last for more than 10 days, or are extremely heavy for more than 5 days, you should see your doctor.
