Hopefully there's not a problem that is putting air into the system (bad
gasket, water pump leaking causing low coolant and air in system, etc.)
and a one time bleeding will take care of it. If it continues to
happen, then that will have to be investigated, but you need to do the
initial bleeding to see where you are (i.e., to see if it recurs and/or
look for leak).
