Monthly cycle
My generic monthly cycle is 8 days. but from the past few months, I have had a regular period for 3-4 days. Then the period stops for 3-4 days, and then restarts for the next 3-4 days. Please suggest, is this normal or should I get some medication.

A period that starts, stops for a few days, then restarts isn't the usual bleeding pattern, and at your age it's worth checking properly rather than assuming it will settle on its own.
Next Steps
A pelvic ultrasound and a hormone profile are the standard first steps to understand why this is happening.
Health Tips
Please don't start any medication for this on your own before that workup is done.
