Brief Answer:
It can be be due to emotional stress

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear and thanks for your query.

Bleeding after menopause can also occur during a particularly stressful or emotional event or due to an unexpected spurt of hormones.

But we can't exclude any serious reason like endometrial cancer or hyperplasia (overgrowth of the lining tissues of the uterus, which can be precancerous in some cases)

For the majority, there is an innocent cause for the bleeding. However, the most common presenting symptom of an endometrial cancer is post menopausal bleeding. Postmenopausal bleeding should always be taken seriously even if it amounts to no more than a small blood stained discharge. Note that even when the bleeding is related to cancer, if it is diagnosed early there is a very good chance that the disease can be cured.


Hence to have peace of mind have a detailed pelvic exam with a transvaginal scan to exclude endometrial cancer .

All the best
