Patient's question:
I have noticed vaginal bleeding in the past two days. Aside from a little pain in my abdomen, I would like to ask the doctor, what are the reasons for vaginal bleeding after menopause?Doctor's answer:
There are many reasons for vaginal bleeding after menopause in women. Some women experience vaginal bleeding again 1-2 years after menopause, or have a small amount of vaginal bleeding after taking supplements or traditional Chinese medicine to promote blood circulation. This may be because there is still a very small amount of estrogen accumulated in the body. In general, a normal pathological examination after diagnostic curettage is required, and no special treatment is needed. However, vaginal bleeding after menopause in women can be very dangerous, as it is often closely related to malignant tumors or the initial symptoms of many diseases in the female reproductive organs. Such as senile vaginitis, endometritis, cervical intraepithelial carcinoma, cervical cancer, endometrial cancer, fallopian tube cancer, etc., are prone to vaginal bleeding again. It is worth noting that cervical cancer and endometrial cancer are malignant tumors in elderly women, with postmenopausal bleeding as the initial symptom.
