You have to rule out a pregnancy. Persistent spotting can be due to multiple reasons. See a Gynaecologist for assessment and scan

At 40 years of age, prolonged spotting after periods is commonly due to hormonal/perimenopausal changes, but spotting for 9 days is not normal.
Next Steps
Please consult for evaluation, including a pelvic ultrasound and basic blood tests.
Health Tips
Seek care earlier if bleeding becomes heavy or you feel weak
