Hi,
From history it seems that your mother is in menopausal stage giving rise to this problem.
Wait for few months for complete absence of period due to menopause. If problem persisted thenconsult gynaec and get examined to rule out other problem in uterus.
Ultra sound will give good clue about the condition.
Ok and take care.
