Hi thanks for posting on hcm.
In your age group who attained menopause uterine prolapse is tha most common where uterus because of the loosening of the supporting structures moves down and comes out through vagina which is called third degree prolapse. There are some other conditions like vaginal polyp or cervical polyp which also present in the above mentioned way these are the rounded growths in the vagina and cervix which are benign growths.
I suspect you to be most likely having any of these I recommend you to consult a doctor and get examined.
Hope this is helpful to you.
Regards
