Yes: The vaginal area becomes less lubricated with age and starts to atrophy . Speculum examination may cause pain and result in mild bleeding. If bleeding persist or worsens see your doctor.

When wiping after BM the toilet paper has black specks as well as the normal stuff. BMs are solid, no visible blood, but by about the 3rd wipe there is a little blood on the paper, but might be from aggressive wiping. Could this be something serious?
