What Causes Light Vaginal Bleeding In An Elderly Woman?
I am a 75 year old healthy woman. I have Fibromyalgia and hip issues but general health has always been good. Today I found light blood on the toilet tissue after urination. I had endometriosis when I was younger and severe PMS and was on Progesterone for a number of years. in my 40s. What could be the cause of the very, very light bleeding? No abdominal pain or any pain what so ever.

Hello,
Bleeding per Vagina at this age(75yrs) must consult a Gynecologist. US and vaginal examination and biopsy must rule out any malignancy.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
