SUMMARY AND RECOMMENDATIONS. ● Definition – Postmenopausal bleeding (PMB) refers to any uterine bleeding in a menopausal patient (other than the expected cyclic bleeding that occurs in patients taking combined [ie, estrogen-progestin], cyclic, postmenopausal hormone therapy).
The differential diagnosis of postmenopausal bleeding includes many benign and malignant conditions, the most common of which is atrophy, but the most concerning possible etiology is endometrial cancer. As with most malignancies, early diagnosis may lead to a better prognosis.

Transvaginal ultrasonography usually is sufficient for an initial evaluation of postmenopausal bleeding if the ultrasound images reveal a thin endometrial echo (less than or equal to 4 mm), given that an endometrial thickness of 4 mm or less has a greater than 99% negative predictive value for endometrial cancer.
Causes of postmenopausal bleeding The most common causes are: inflammation and thinning of the vaginal lining (atrophic vaginitis) or womb lining (endometrial atrophy) – caused by lower oestrogen levels. cervical or womb polyps – growths that are usually non-cancerous.
In most cases, postmenopausal bleeding is caused by issues such as endometrial atrophy (a thinning of the uterine lining), vaginal atrophy, fibroids, or endometrial polyps. The bleeding could also be a sign of endometrial cancer—a malignancy of the uterine lining, but only in a small number of cases.

Study Provides Closer Look at Postmenopausal Bleeding and Endometrial Cancer. Women experiencing abnormal vaginal bleeding may undergo a transvaginal ultrasound, biopsy, or both, to determine if an endometrial tumor is the cause.
Causes of postmenopausal bleeding include: endometrial carcinoma; cervical carcinoma; vaginal atrophy; endometrial hyperplasia +/- polyp; cervical polyps; hormone-producing ovarian tumours; haematuria and rectal bleeding.
Bleeding after menopause is often harmless. However, it can also be a rare sign of cervical cancer. Cervical cancer tends to progress slowly. Doctors can sometimes identify these cells during a regular exam.
Symptomatic surgical menopause is coded as 627.4. Premature menopause is an endocrine disorder and is coded as 256.31. Premature menopause is a naturally-occuring condition in women over the age of 40. Along the same lines, non-symptomatic post-surgical menopause is coded as 256.2.
Menopausal arthritis is coded from the Musculoskeletal section in the 716.3x range . Menopausal arthritis is caused by a lack of estrogen and progesterone no longer secreted from the ovaries. One exception to this rule is Menopausal depression. For this diagnosis, you would code the depression codes (296.2 or 296.3).
There are several menopausal and post-menopausal disorders and conditions that can be coded. These will differentiate from other general conditions as long as the documentation links them specifically to menopause.
