Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
Vaginal bleeding along with back pain could happen once in a while during the post-menopausal period. This is generally due to hormonal imbalance.
However, the other reasons which could cause it like presence of fibroids or cervicitis should be ruled out.
Things would be lot clear after an ultrasound examination.
Until then, don't have to worry much.
Following scan, it can be managed appropriately.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
I find this answer helpful
