Hysterectomy Answer A47

I can’t get idea for what might cause this vaginal bleeding because I do not know the reason for your wife's hysterectomy. Nonetheless, the bleeding may originate from the localized site of surgical resection. She can visit her gynecologist and request a colposcopya examination for further conclusions.
