Bleeding after many years of hysterectomy. Is this normal?

I was wondering if anyone can please help with a few possible answers to my question.
My mom is now in her early 60's, she had a full hysterectomy in 1993. Lately she has started bleeding but quite badly. It lasts for about a day or two and then goes away again. It seems to be quite heavy and she feels extremely weak when this is happening.
She has been to a clinic but they seem to say that they can't pick anything wrong up?
Is this normal for a woman her age? What can she use to not feel so weak when its happening?
Thank you all for your time.

Yea, it is weird that this is the second one this week. They seem to happen this way.

I too suggest a GYN. Just wondering, is she on blood thinners?

Is your mom in any pain? I really feel like this is a gynecological issue, not a usual clinic.

Keep us posted as to how she is.

She needs to see a gynecologist.

I have heard of heavy bleeding that led up to a hysterectomy but have no knowledge of what your mom is experiencing.

I wouldn’t ignore symptoms like this.
