Hi,
Thanks for your question. I do understand your pain and discomfort. I have seen many cases with similar complaints. Please find my advice below-:
1)As per your history you have not mentioned clearly how old she is now? and what removed ?
2)Vaginal bleeding can be due to a number of pathological causes so do a trasvaginal ultrasound and PAP test and share the result.
3)If age is >40 talk with your family doctor to remove both uterus and ovaries to prevent future complications.
4)If age is less than 40 and childbearing so Dx will be AUB(Hormonal imbalance)
I hope I was able to address your query. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to write to me.
Wishing you all the best.
Thanks,
