Did you stop taking birth control pills? This "second" period could be breakthrough bleeding, which is bleeding between periods, and caused by stopping the pills. In doing so, you upset the balance of hormones that regulate your menstrual cycle.
Consult your gynecologist. Prolonged bleeding can lead to iron deficiency anemia.
