Brief Answer:
Always abnormal bleeding should be checked.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

Welcome to Healthcare Magic.

Your symptoms like burning, itching and bleeding may be caused by vaginal atrophy which occurs after menopause.

It is the thinning of the walls of the vagina because of decreased estrogen levels.

This is the common condition. Also vaginal dryness may occur.

I would order for base line:
- Pelvic examination because every abnormal vaginal bleeding should be checked,
- Urine test to check for urinary tract infections.

Genital warts are a sexually transmitted infection and are caused by the human papillomavirus (HPV) so if you are not sure you can make HPV test.

You should make an appointment with gynecologist so that he or she will examine you and find the reason of the bleeding.

Menopause-related itching may be treated with estrogen cream or tablets.

Hope I have answered your question. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help.
