After menopause for a year, why is there heavy menstrual bleeding and dark blood?

Patient's question:

Doctor, I am 44 years old. I had my menopause and then had my period again. I didn't remove the intrauterine device (IUD) previously. Could you please explain why I had my period again a year after menopause, and why the flow is heavier and dark?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, according to your description, it is best to have a proper check-up at a local regular hospital, especially in the gynecology department. If there are no issues, you can relax and let things take their natural course. It is recommended to rest well, avoid nervousness, pay attention to your diet, eat less spicy food, stay calm, maintain clean external genitalia, change underwear and pants frequently, and please follow up actively. For this condition, in addition to necessary treatment, patients should also focus on self-care in their daily lives, ensuring a good routine, so they can overcome the illness as soon as possible.
