Wait and watch for the bleeding.

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Nice to hear from you once again.

There are so many causes which may cause intermenstrual bleeding ( bleeding in between periods).

In your case most probably it can be due to perimenopause or menopause, hormonal changes, thyroid disorder, diabetes, fibroid, polyp, PCOD, DUB and endometrial hyperplasia.

You should wait and watch for bleeding for 2-3 days if bleeding increase in quantity and not resolve in 2-3 days than you should consult a Gynaecologist and get yourself examined and investigation done like Transvaginal ultrasound ( to see fibroid, polyp, PCOD, endometrial thickness), thyroid profile, hormonal profile( fsh, lh, estrogen and progesterone level), blood sugar.

Hope it is useful.

Hope to hear from you soon.
