A member asked:

My cycle has been 30 days in the last 3 months, ii bled yesterday being 28days. should i regard it as spotting or light period?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Probably the period: Even though your cycles are usually 30 days apart, it is within the normal range of variation for the menses to start 2 days early. If it was unusually light, you may want to check a pregnancy test, but it was most likely your period.
