Endometrial cancer or Perimenopause?

I'm 48.  Bleeding and or spottting for 18 days now.  Periods have become irregular.  Last longer then no ovulation or ovulating late.

    What your experiencing is very similar to what I went through 2 years ago. I didn't have any other symptoms apart from longer periods and intermittent bleeding.

    I had a telephone consultation with gp and I expected her to say start of menopause, but she said it didn't sound like it and I was referred for 2ww ultrasound.

    In my case it was a thickened endometrium which led to a hysteroscopy where a growth/polyp was found on my uterus and removed. This was benign and I was 44 at the time.

    From my own experience if I were you I would make a app to speak to a gp and then go from there. 

    Hopefully it's nothing to worry about 

    Take care
