Is Prolonged Vaginal Bleeding During Perimenopause Normal?

Is prolonged vaginal bleeding (about 6 months now) during perimenopause normal? Some say it is hormonal. I have been spotting everyday and sometimes even having normal period Since August 13, 2017. Have not gone a day with at least spotting. I am 55 years old. Is this normal?

Hello,

A prolonged bleeding is not related to perimenopause period.

The possible causes are Hormonal imbalance or polyp or endometrial hyperplasia or thyroid problems or clotting problems etcetera.

Please consult your doctor, he/she will examine and treat you accordingly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Penchila Prasad Kandikattu
