Detailed Answer:
Hello!
Thanks for your query.
There are a number of things that could cause you to have your period twice in one month.
It might be stress induced or it could be a hormonal inbalance or it could even have been a very very early miscarriage,or cervical infection like SST.
Whatever the reason, I would suggest that you go see your doctor or gynae and have a check up.

Take care of your self
