Brief Answer:
Needs evaluation.

Detailed Answer:
HI,

Thanks for your query.

Postmenopausal bleed or bleeding after long-term amenorrhea must be evaluated in detail. You will need a detailed clinical examination also an ultrasound scan to ascertain the cause of the bleed which could be due to fibroid or mass.

Pain associated with bleeding could be secondary to a mass or fibroid. It is advisable to abstain from intercourse till futher advice. In case of excessive bleed blood pressure might drop and can cause complications.

I would recommend consulting your gynecologist at the earliest.

Hope, I answered your query.
