Brief Answer:
Can be menopausal bleeding.

Detailed Answer:

Hello,

After the removal of ovaries you will now have menopausal changes. The bleeding that you are having is a sign of hormonal disturbance and if the bleeding is persistent then it needs a detailed investigation to find the cause. Such bleeding usually stops after a week or so. You can consult your gynecologist and get hormonal pills prescribed that can help to stop the bleeding in case the bleeding is excessive.

I hope this answers your query.

Wishing you good health.

Regards,
