Can a 83 year old woman have a period?

Question:
My mother in law says she is spotting, she is 83 yrs old, she is a bit strange and mental in my eyes and always looking for attention.
Answer:
No, it is unusual for an 83 year old woman to be “spotting” blood from her vaginal area. If she is truly having vaginal bleeding, suggest your mother-in-law see her primary care health provider as soon as possible.
