Hi,

Thanks for the query.

Bleeding after hysterectomy needs to be evaluated. It would have helped to know the reason for hysterectomy as well as if the ovaries were preserved or not. In any case, the causes for such bleeding are commonly senile endometritis and senile vaginitis that occur due to low hormonal levels. However other less common but serious causes include carcinoma of vagina or vault carcinoma.

Also analgesics can cause a gastrointestinal bleed that is sometimes confused with vaginal bleeding. So please check to see the source of blood.

My advise to you is to consult your gynecologist and get an examination done to check for the source of bleeding. Further investigations and treatment will be based upon examination findings.

Hope I was able to help you. Thanks for using Health Care Magic.
I would be happy to answer any further queries.
Have a nice day.
