Abnormal bleeding: Menstrual irregularities are common. The answer depends on your age, medical history, medications, and complete physical examination. If after evaluation, which needs to include an exam and possibly ultrasound, everything is found to be normal, then the bleeding is likely because your period was not truly over yet. Many women spot after their menses. See an obgyn, so that you will know for sure.
