It is normal to experience some bleeding after a hysterectomy. If the bleeding has become a concern, contact your physician right away.
The most basic test would be a taste test (I know, disgusting but it works). Period blood and blood from vaginal bleeding look the same, but taste completely different. Period blood is sweet tasting (because of the abundance of hormone in it) and vaginal blood is copper tasting. Hope this helped.
It wouldn't, it's not possible for you to menstruate a week after your last period. You're experiencing irregular bleeding, not all vaginal bleeding is menstruation. You need to see your doctor.
A torn labia would cause severe pain and bleeding.
Bleeding at anytime durning pregnancy is risky, I would call my obgyn or go to a local women's health clinic.

There are many reasons for vaginal bleeding. They range from irritation or tear during sex, to any of a number of conditions. If you have not had harsh sex, and you are 20 years post-hysterectomy, or even if you have not had a hysterectomy but you cannot account for the bleeding, you should see a doctor.

The reason can be many. It can be because of vaginal inflammation of old age, may be from a sore fouchette, may be urethral (from urinary source), or can be even from a cancerous growth. Should be examined by a doctor. Should consider as serious, until proved otherwise.
Not that i know of.. Its impossible to bleed whilst swimming anyway but i dont know whether when you get out it just starts bleeding. Its beyond me.
Not always. The more typical symptoms would be lower back aches. A sense of bloating of the lower abdomen.
No, you do not need this after a hysterectomy. Some women have had these put in to aid previous incontinence, but for quite a few women, this has not worked out. You might just have the hysterectomy and consider the other at a later time. Get a second opinion.
If you know for sure that you are pregnant, it is probably not going to be your period, although some women have experienced a "first" period then learns a couple of weeks later that they really are pregnant. It is possible that it could be implantation bleeding caused by the fertilized egg to attach itself to the uterine wall. Or it could be a cervical change that can cause vaginal bleeding. Vaginal bleeding can also be a symptom of ectopic (tubal) pregnancy. Another cause for bleeding during pregnancy is a miscarriage although the first two reasons for bleeding are more common, it is still a good idea to contact your doctor if you are too concerned.
There are instances of vaginal bleeding for long periods of time during pregnancy. However, it would depend upon how much bleeding; just spotting would be fine, but it is doubtful if bleeding occurs every day in large amounts.
women who suffer from excessive or prolonged bleeding during their menstrual cycle but can not or do not wish to undergo a hysterectomy, another option would be Endometrial ablation
No. This is probably not even a period. Most likely has another diagnostic reasoning for vaginal bleeding. Elder adults often have thinning of vaginal lining that can cause some light bleeding. It would be best for the 81 year old to alert their physician immediately.
