Post Menopausal Bleeding

[fruitsalad]

Ladies have you experienced this? What was your reason for it
I had a internal scan a year ago all was ok then, but I have been bleeding and it's worrying me.

This is one of the few times I would say go to doc. Get an urgent appointment.

How long ago was your last regular period? I'm going through peri-menopause now and have to watch out for bleeding at random times. Oh the joy of being a woman:)
It doesn't sound like anything serious, fruitsalad. As you've had a scan already, I don't think you need to worry. See your gp if you are worried.

go to GP.

Similar thing happened to my MIL, all was OK tho, as I'm sure it will be for you too xx

By far an away, the commonest cause is hormonal (oestrogen) leading to vaginitis )dry vagina)
I agree with all posts above..........see your GP not necessarily urgent, but a routine appt.

Thank you I am being sent for another internal scan I don't look forward
to it.

This happened to me and I had an ultrasound scan and internal scan. Nothing sinister was found and it was concluded there were some tiny fibroids that were causing the occasional bleeding, no treatment was needed and it stopped. That was 11 years ago and I'm still alive and kicking so don't worry too much.x

Just seen this, sorry for delay. I'm 68 next month and began menopause before I hit 50. Aged about 61/2 I suddenly had a bit of bleeding - an ultrasound revealed an old fibroid. It was all hormonal. I am still having periodical hot flushes and sweats and I wouldn't worry if I sometimes had a bleed; I'd just get it checked. One day, please God, this interminable menopause will end. At least my bone scan proved normal so I still have some protective hormonal activity. Look on the bright side. :)
