Su so glad yours did not hurt and I wish I was one of those who sailed through it but mine was horrendous I had severe stomach cramps, nearly fainted my legs were killing me and I bleed for 7 days after so we had to stop I am having it done again under general anesthetic

I have a low psin threshold and its been about 8 years since my menopsuse so getting through cervix was so painful 

Hi All,

new to all this, I've held off posting but decided to fire away as I'm just sitting home worrying. I'm 37 years old I had my third baby 10 months ago. Whilst I was breast feeding before my period came back I was having a strange discharge it was sometimes yellow sometimes greeny brown. I thought it was BV so got some over the counter suppositories that didn't work so thought maybe I had thrush so got some canenstan suppositories which again didn't help. Anyhow I decided it must be hormonal and decided to stop breast feeding. A couple of months later my period came back but it was ridiculously heavy, I was having to wear both a super tampon and a night pad together and changed them after 1 1/2 hours. I waited a few months to see would they settle but after four months they didn't so went to the gp. She sent me for a pelvic US which showed up a mass ?polyp ?fibroid. I was referred to a gynae and he did a trans vaginal US which showed thickened endometrium and a a lump which is 18mm in size. I've to go in on the 17th of Aug for polypectomy and D&C under general anaesthetic. I'm worried sick my gp has said endometrial cancer is typically a post menopausal illness but there are always exceptions. The waiting is awful 

So sorry to hear your so worried I know it hard not to. I hope the news is good when you get it kerp us informed. I also new hesr and just thought it might help to talk to people going through it. I must admit tge hospital have been very nice, but it hard not being able to have anyone with us due to covid. I am disabled and my husband normally helps me  but had several nurses helping me.

Thanks for responding! Just can't wait to have it behind me! At this point I just wish I knew either way so that if it turns out to be something sinister I can just focus on getting over that! Otherwise I just want it behind me so I can move on and forget this worry! 

I here where you are coming from I hope the days pass fast having dreadful day today but just wanted you to know I care hugs x

Lines hope things are going well for you and hope your coping virtual hugs 

hi, hope you don't mind me jumping in on your thread, i just wondered if you have had a diagnosis? I have the same symptoms as you bright red bleeding like a period followed by brown discharge on and off, and i am worried sick, I can't have a biopsy due to having had an ablation. i have had a couple of scans one which showed a endometrium of 12mm and then the other that showed an endometrium of 4mm. If you don't mind replying that would be great. I'm 53 years old and haven't had a period for so long! x

Hiya

Sorry hope you dont mind me jumping on all your threads. I'm 45, pre-menopause, was told Sept 2018 that I have Endometrial Hyperplasia and so had a coil fitted. Periods stayed normal and nice and regular for a while. Doc said Sept 2019 when I was ready for a hysterectomy let her know and she'd refer me, but at the time I was looking after my dad. So 2020 came and Covid set in. My periods are now continuous and have been for 5 months, back pain, legs ache. So I've been back onto my GP and I've been referred but I dont know how long things will take as I'm now waiting for a phone consultation. We've got a son so we're not worried about a hysterectomy. I've got family history of early hysterectomy's, so think theres a bit of a theme going on. Hope you're all staying safe xx

I have just had my diagnosis and got the all clear its now just sorting out the  lining  whuch will be treated with meriva coil and maybe some tablets I still have the discharge and occasional bleeding but know its nothing too worrying. I still find it weird to have stomach pains bleeding abd discharge long after the menopause but it should be better with treatment. I have atrial fibulation, angina and had a stroke abd several Tia,s  and thinning of heart  wall which they think might be hole They dud my biopsy using a spinal injection which meant I could feel nothing from waist  down felt very strange but was much safer. Maybe ask your consultant if its possible ti do  biopsy  using spinal methid I also have degeratuve soine so they had to be careful . Uts worth asking to put your mind at rest I wish you all the best please keep in touch xxx hugs

Hope they are able to sort it for you. I had meruval coil fitted some time back to stop heavy periods it was fabulous for first 4 year I expected my go to contact me when it was due fir removal they did not and I never realised I was having continual water infection and stomach pain they investigated abd at that time fiund I had a dermoid cyst 6mm in size in my left ovary so I had coil taken out and left ovary and cyst removed whuch cleared up my UTI,s 

However I now have UTI,s again I hope tgey sort it fir you mand I wish in a way they had given me a hysteroscopy and I would not have had to go through all these ussyes during covid which is scary and worrying I wish you all the best di stsy in touch I hope they can do you operation sooner rather than later
