Hello
If your periods have become lighter and is now brownish black, it is no cause for worry. There is no need to see the doctor again. Periods are likely to be a little different than your usual, once you have taken hormones.
Period irregularities like yours, occurs once in a while, due to hormonal disturbances, and then gradually settle down. If it is a one off, do not worry. Hopefully your successive periods will be normal.
Best wishes.
