Hello,
As you are 56 years female with a complaint of bleeding per vagina. The doctor needs to evaluate you properly, like an examination of your uterus and ovaries by scan and vaginal examination.
Some time examination of the endometrium is also needed so they told you to take tab Misoprostol one day before.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
