If I understand the question, your period has started 3 days early and is not the usual expected amount. If you are sexually active and not using contraception, or even if you are , there is a chance that you may be pregnant so doing a pregnancy test would be a good place to start. If you have recently started a new contraceptive then breakthrough bleeding is a possibility. This occurs because the pill is not completely controlling the build up and breakdown of the uterine lining. If you are not pregnant and not using hormonal contraception, variation in the timing of your ovulation is the explanation for the period not coming at the expected time. Some variation in the cycle from month to month is normal, but if your period repeatedly is less than 21 days from one to the next or if you frequently miss periods, you should consult your OBGYN MD.
