Hello Anonymous and welcome to EmpowHER.

Women who are postmenopausal (no menstrual period for 12 consecutive months or more) should not experience vaginal bleeding. Any vaginal bleeding is considered abnormal in postmenopausal women.

Your vaginal walls may be dry from lack of estrogen, which may cause bleeding during or after sexual intercourse. Trauma or Injury to the vaginal wall during intercourse can also cause bleeding.

If you are having pain or other abnormal symptoms you should see your healthcare professional for an exam and diagnosis.

Hope this helps,

Pam
