Patient's question:
Already been menopausal for two years, suddenly lower abdomen pain and bleeding downstairs. Had an ultrasound examination, the doctor prescribed hemostatic medicine, but after taking it for one day, the bleeding increased the next day instead. What's going on?Doctor's answer:
You have not had your menstrual period for two years. Currently, you are experiencing repeated bleeding, which requires immediate examination to clarify your condition. At this time, it is not possible to speculate on the cause. It is recommended that you undergo a gynecological examination promptly to determine the condition of your uterus and pelvic area. The amount of bleeding is quite significant, so it is also recommended to perform a diagnostic curettage, sending the scraped tissue for pathological examination to confirm the diagnosis.Vaginal bleeding after menopause for over ten years, if the amount of bleeding is minimal and lasts for 2-3 days to stop, is often caused by the shedding of the endometrium after menopause or senile vaginitis. If the bleeding is heavy, persistent, or recurrent, it should be considered a possibility of endometrial cancer. Further endometrial pathological examination should be conducted to confirm the diagnosis.
