Be sure to check for leaks, but it's probably just your pads getting thin.

Just know that when you do replace your pads, if you do it yourself, you'll have to remove some fluid from the master cylinder or it will overflow when you push the pistons back in.

This, you don't need to worry about air in the system unless the the master cylinder is empty completely. You only really need to bleed the system, when changing pads, rotors or the fluid entirely.
