In clinical terms, you reach menopause when you haven't had a period for 12 months. Vaginal bleeding after menopause isn't normal and should be evaluated by your doctor. For instance, postmenopausal vaginal bleeding can be caused by: Cancer of the uterus, including endometrial cancer and uterine sarcoma. Cancer of the cervix or vagina. Thinning of the tissues lining the uterus (endometrial atrophy) or vagina (vaginal atrophy)
Why you shouldnât ignore postmenopausal bleeding. A woman is considered to be in menopause after 12 consecutive months without a period. You may experience irregular bleeding leading up to menopause, a stage known as perimenopause. But once youâre in menopause, all vaginal bleeding should stop. There are benign causes of postmenopausal bleeding. For 10 percent of women, however, the cause is endometrial cancer.
