Irregular periods
I got my period on 12th of August. I had unprotected sex and took a morning pill withing 48 hours. I got my period again on 18th and it lasted for 5 days. Again after almost 10 days I got my period again. So basically I got my period thrice in a span of 3 months. I am hesitant to visit a gynaec. Could this be serious?
