Anything that lasts more than 7 days should be followed up by your doctor, especially with a different color. Since this is considered irregular there are can be several causes for this. Examples; stress, weight gain/loss, medication, illness, climate, cyst, or polyp of the cervix, hormonal, thyroid, infection.. just to name a few.

Without a proper exam it would be hard to pin point the exact cause. Do call your doctor for an exam to determine the exact cause.
