Hi,

Abdominal mesh implantation for hernia repair is unlikely to cause vaginal bleeding. Mostly it occurs with hormonal imbalance which has been already investigated & found to be normal.

Your age being around 40... the only possibility remains is some erosion/polyp on the cervix or... early premenopausal changes.

Please see your gynecologist for more specific local examination & management.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Vasudha Jayant Athavale, General & Family Physician
