Postmenopausal Bleeding

What you need to know:

There are no natural remedies or complementary therapies that can treat this condition, which must always be taken seriously and investigated by your GP. However, adding soya-based foods - like tofu, soya milk and soya yoghurt - to your diet and ensuring that you eat lots of Iron rich foods may help if you’re in danger of getting anaemia.(see blood and circulation in the chest cavity)

It’s worth remembering, however, that if you’re taking some forms of hormone replacement therapy, they do cause a ‘false period’ towards the end of each month’s course - that’s one of the reasons many women give up HRT. More recent medications don’t have this side-effect. If this worries you ask your doctor about changing brands.
