Many women were delighted when their periods stopped and they did not have to deal with cycles each month.
Many women feel that post-menopausal bleeding is bad because it is a sign of uterine cancer.
In truth, for most women, menstruation after menopause, if they are taking hormone replacement therapy, is perfectly normal. Furthermore, it is a good sign and it simplifies menopause management for the clinician. To accomplish these effects, one needs to get a therapeutic level of the hormones which simulate the natural levels women experienced before menopause. From a positive perspective, bleeding during menstruation means that you are getting enough estrogen into your body to achieve a tissue effect. In other words, monthly menstruation tells you that the medication is actually working.
