Regular period, 5 days later start bleeding again?

Question

My friend had her regular period, but 5 days after it ended, she started bleeding again, she said it went on for two days and it was like spotting. After that though, it quit for like a day and a half and and started up again but this time it was a really light color, and her breasts are kind of sore. She also said that she's cramping now like she does on her regular period.

I dunno if this helps, but she's 21, and she's never been on any birth control pills or anything of the sort. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks :)

That isn't very uncommon at all. She's just fine. Her hormones are slightly out of balance. That is probably due to stress.
