Yes I am post menopausal and do have bleeding occassionally (once very 6 months) my scan report is 2 years old but I will upload this. I am going to go back to my doctor but wanted an opion from you also
Brief Answer:
Need evaluation.
Detailed Answer:
Hello ma'am,
Nice to hear from you once again.
At your age 9 mm endometrial thickness considered to be high ( < 5 mm considered normal) as you are having occasional bleeding also.
Hence you should consult a Gynaecologist and get yourself examined and repeat ultrasound scans, pap smear and endometrial biopsy test should be done to rule out the below mentioned causes.
Because at your age other than fibroid, polyp, endometrial cancer, cervical cancer and endometrial hyperplasia may cause increased endometrial thickness and vaginal bleeding.
So please revert back to us with your reports.
Good luck.

Hello,
Sorry for the inconvenience but previously it was not showing on my desktop.
I have gone through your report and there is fibroids and increased thickness of endometrium.
