Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
The mild and irregular bleeding that you are having can be due to dry vagina, a vaginal infection or a hormonal imbalance. A direct examination and vaginal swab culture will help in detecting the cause. In case it is due to a hormonal imbalance then hormonal pills will help.
