General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello dear
I understand your concern
Heavy blood discharge during menopause is not common.
It could be due to hormonal imbalance, vaginal infection, cervicitis, endometrial/cervix dysplasia, polyp, endometrial cancer, pelvic inflammatory disorder.
I would suggest to consult gynecologist and undergo
examination, reproductive hormone analysis, USG scan, vaginal swab test, PAP smear, endometrial biopsy if needed
Specific treatment depend on cause.
Progesterone pill an tranexemic acid can be used to stop blood discharge
Infection require prescribed antibiotic like clindamycin, cefixime
Maintain proper pelvic hygiene by using V vaginal plus wash,
Drink plenty of water and eat healthy diet
Hope this may help you

Contact further if follow up needed
Best regards
Dr. Sagar
