hi as your a year into the menopause i hope confirmed with your doctor a simple blood test would do it for your hormones if you have not had one you should just in case you need hrt. so as for getting pregnant i think those days are gone. but as for stis and stds you should always think safe sex and use condoms if your with a stranger if its a regular partner and you trust him you could forget the condoms must of us and including women do love there sex au natural. but do keep lots of lubrication on hand for any dryness this comes with the menopause coconut oil extra virgin is best almond oil if you have no reaction to it baby oil or olive oil or you can find loads of sex oils even in super markets. if you do get any vaginal bleeding just get to your doctor asap i do hope this helps you. good luck
