Hi,
I can think of one possible cause for your pattern of period this month. It seems period was missed due to blighted ovum & bleeding started as it was not a viable pregnancy & it seems to have cleared as bleeding had stopped after 4 days. Please observe the menstrual cycle this month & consult doctor...if the problem repeats.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Vasudha Jayant Athavale, General & Family Physician
