Period related concern
My daughter has had her periods since 1.5 years. The initial 8 months she had them once in every 2 to 3 months, since the past 8 months it has more or less regularised. However this month she got her periods 1 week before time ( 30th Nov instead of 8th Dec ), the blood was brownish & the flow was very scanty for 1 week. Post that hee usual periods began starting 7th Dec... It's been almost 10 days that there is bleeding, began with spotting & then regular periods. She does not complain of any pain or discomfort but I am worried if this is normal during menarche?

Hi it is ok after menarche you may have these episodes 2 to 3 yrs before it actually regularise
If the flow is not heavy you can wait and see for 4 to 5 days if still bleeding persist plz get it checked.

Yes for 2-3 years , irregular periods are normal. But if it happens after a period of regular periods , you should rule out some hormonal issues like thyroid or pcos.
