Is it normal to have two menstrual periods in one month?

Patient's question:

Hello!
I would like to ask, does having two menstrual periods within a month fall within the normal range? I have never experienced this symptom before. Does it mean there is some gynecological disease? Also, within the past month, the vaginal discharge has been mixed with blood streaks, sometimes just red? What does this mean? Can I have sexual intercourse in this situation? The second menstrual period within a month occurred three days after sexual intercourse. What is the reason for this? Is it serious?
Follow-up question: If there is always red discharge, what kind of gynecological examination should be done? What tests are needed? Is this related to cervical erosion I had in the past? Will it...

Doctor's answer:

Hello, you don't need to be nervous. First, this is definitely not normal, but it's not that serious either. You must go to the gynecology department of the hospital for a check-up to see the cause, and then you can receive targeted treatment.
The occurrence of irregular menstruation not only affects a woman's body but can also lead to gynecological diseases. Therefore, it's best to have a gynecological examination at the hospital, identify the cause, and then receive targeted treatment. Also, pay attention to personal hygiene and keep the vulvar skin clean.
