It is not normal to get periods after menopause. Please get your mother tested at the earliest . Couple of tests include Pap smear, cervical biopsy and endometrial biopsy . It could be a hormonal cause as well . But at her age it’s always safer and wiser to rule out malignancy with regular testing and monitoring . Kindly visit your nearest gynaecologist at the earliest for further investigations and management
