What Causes Vaginal Bleeding?
I have bleeding from the vagina. This has only been happening for the past two days. I am in menapause. Age- 82. I just was in the hospital with a bad bladder infection , that went to sepsis. I was given pills for 9 days and I am going to have my doctor check my on Friday to see if the infection is cleared. However, I am concerned now about this bleeding.. I have autoimmune diseases.. not cancer..
