Post natal bleeding

Looking for some advice..

I'm 4 weeks post partum and had a episiotomy.

I reached the stage where my post natal bleeding was just like discharge yellow/pink.

The post natal discharge/bleeding was still happening and then suddenly I started getting awful period pain and bleeding heavier dark red blood and small clots, this has been constant for about 3/4 days with constant period pain.

I have started the mini pill on my 20th day post partum, I'm not sure if the mini pill is causing a period or if this is something that needs checking

Wondering if it's normal to have a period so soon or if someone had a similar experience

TIA

I have had a period 4 weeks after both of my births despite EBF. If anything about the bleeding concerns you it might be worth speaking to a midwife or GP.
