Visit a gynecologist

Detailed Answer:
Hello Mam, thanks for trusting health care magic.
Yes it is not good to have bleeding from vagina after long years of menopause so you need to visit a gynecologist for examination and ultrasound.
It can be due to estrogen cream also but a proper examination is a must.
