Cause for concern?

Julia

My period ended 2 days ago after my typical 8 days of bleeding (yes I have long periods, no the doctor is not concerned). For some reason today I started cramping more badly than usual but not as badly as I experienced before my IUD was put in 1.5 years ago, and then I went to the bathroom and realized I was moderately bleeding bright red blood. It’s not spotting and I’m in a fair amount of pain. Is this normal? What’s happening?
