HI
Well come to HCM
Chances of menopause is very likely and this is one then such bleeding is very common, wait for some time this would be okay, bleeding would stop, if this continue then better to see the gynecologist for clinical examination and investigation for the cramping you can try following medicines
1) Tab Acetaminophen 500 mg once in day
2) Tab Ibuprofen 400 mg once in day
hope this information helps, take care
