A problem: Bleeding not associated with a period should be investigated. You should consult with your physician.

Depends: It could be your period, but just not what you're used to. It could be intermenstrual spotting. It could indicate an infection as well. See a gyn for evaluation if it lasts for more than a day or two or is recurrent.
