Little bleeding after menopause

2026-01-05 12:16:44
My mother is 51 years old and she stopped getting periods around 2 years ago. Recently, she has undergone gallstones surgery (been over a month now). From last two days , she is getting little vaginal bleeding (few drops) only . Is this normal or alarming ? or anything related to surgery?

This is called postmenopausal bleeding. You should definitely consult a gynecologist to do ultrasound and endometrial sampling
