Irregular periods : Irregular periods are one of the most common problems obgyns treat. If this is one time problem it usually resolves on its own. If this is a recurring problem you should be evaluated. Infections & hormonal changes can cause spotting. If there is a concern for pregnancy then do a home pregnancy test . There are many options available to help regulate the menstrual cycle. Schedule a visit.

Probably not: It is not uncommon to have 1 irregular period, however, it may be a sign of pregnancy, polyps, or other abnormalities. I would recommend first taking a pregnancy test if there is any possibility of pregnancy and if negative and it happens again, you should see your gynecologist.
