General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi,
I understand your concern.
The irregular vaginal bleeding pattern is common in menopause, But it's better to exclude other causes of such condition like- FUH, Ovarian/thyroid problem/pcod/ fibroid uterus.
Certain investigations like hormonal assessment, USG pelvis would help in excluding these.
It's ideal to get a complete health check at menopause & yearly follow up thereafter. In addition, I would advise for a through gynecological examination & investigations & get a pin point cause of the condition.
Followed by necessery treatment/ satisfaction of not being involved inn some illness.
Thanks.
