Post Menopausal vaginal bleeding causes?

wow I so appreciate your response and yes I had a uti resistant bacteria. last check it is gone. the bleeding coincided with uti. more bleeding today bright red. I am 76. what are they doing for you?

I had a radical hysterectomy on September 24th of last year. They got it all, which included a couple of lymph nodes. They checked 4 nodes, 2 had cells and the other two did not. I opted for bloodwork to check for circulating tumor cells and CT scans as a follow up along with a huge change in my diet to combat the root cause of the cancer. My first blood test came back with 0.00 Circulating tumor cells in my system, so I was thrilled with that. I just had my 3 month recheck with my oncologist yesterday and after the exam she said “Congratulations you are cancer free!” Music to my ears even though I had seen the results and knew it, it was good to hear it from her. 😊 They did more bloodwork yesterday which I won’t get the result of for about 3 weeks. Then I’ll have another CT in 6 months. I think after a year they move out the intervals of testing. I am grateful that she is following me with testing so we can know where I stand. I pray soon you will be looking in the rear view mirror and talking about your experience as a thing in the past too. It is scary I know, but know you have sisters on this site that will pray for you and listen with a clear understanding of what you are going through. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

Medical degrees should be partially funded by the US government as to get a degree has gotten ridiculously expensive and is probably a big turn off to a lot of people who would otherwise pursue a medical degree. I also feel that kids in middle school and high school need to be exposed to the different jobs available in the medical field to help them positively dream towards a worthy future.

I am new here. I'm 55 and haven't had a period since 3 years ago. Suddenly 3 months ago I was diagnosed with Parathyroidism. I feel ok and they found one of the para's was swollen and needs to come out. A week or so later I was feeling cramps and had dark bleeding. I knew it wasn't normal so I contacted my Gynecologist. I had a pap test again, after I had one this past June. It showed no bacteria or other issue it tests for. So now I am heading to an ultrasound appt on Wed. I am a bit worried. 🙁
To add to that. On September 7th I had an Afib issue, and I didn't know I had it. ??? Now I'm on Eliquis. So many things at one time. I am looking forward to that scan, and getting answers. I am feeling super overwhelmed. 🙁

@momof2cubs Sorry to hear this is happening to you. I've read in previous replies here That some women experience break through bleeding after cortisone shots.
Hope you issue is easy resolved.

@rashida I wouldn't let it go. If you have endometrial thickening, you should see a doctor, if not gyn, then oncologist. post menopausal bleeding is something that shouldn't be ignored, in my opinion

@1995victoria my physician did succeed I. Referring me to another gynecologist who did a hysteroscopy under anaesthesia in October 2024. He did a D&C procedure too, and so far I have had no spotting a year later.
