What Causes Long Vaginal Bleeding During Menstruation And Post Intercourse?
I am 51 years old. My periods are lasting 3 to 4 weeks sometimes with a week off then starting again. I used to only have them for a max of 5 days. Intercourse also seems to cause bleeding. The bleeding does not appear to look the same as a regular period. Is this something to be concerned about or would it be age related?

Hi,
You need these tests, ultrasonography uterus, hormones level progesterone, estrogen, GnRH, and hCG. Yes, menses can come for 1-2 year after 50 but still needs these tests and a gynecologist follow up. In your case, proper diagnosis, treatment and must be done.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
