   • Vaginal or endometrial atrophy. The most common cause of postmenopausal bleeding is vaginal or endometrial atrophy. This condition is caused by lack of estrogen to the vagina and lining of the uterus.
   • Uterine fibroids. Fibroids are benign (noncancerous) growths in the muscle of the uterus. Fibroids typically shrink when the ovaries stop making estrogen in menopause.
   • Adenomyosis. Adenomyosis is when the lining of the uterus gets embedded in the muscle layer of the uterus. This can cause the uterus to get bigger and painful and lead to abnormal bleeding — especially when you still have a monthly menstrual cycle.
   • Endometrial polyps. Endometrial polyps are fleshy growths that can occur in the lining of the uterus. And they’re a common cause of bleeding after menopause.
