Hi, welcome to healthcare magic.

Post menstrual spotting or bleeding is not a good sign and needs further evaluation.I would like you to undergo an ultrasound to see for any mass in the uterus and to see thickness of the endometrial lining. Secondly, I would want some more information from you like any history of endometrial cancer in the family, use of estrogen as hormone replacement, no of children and your body weight .
