Yes, twice! First time all good, just polyps, all biopsies clear (2019). This year all womb biopsies clear but atypical hyperplasia (precancerous cells) found in one polyp…had a hysterectomy last Monday, home Tuesday to recover, now need to wait for biopsy results as 40% of hyperplasia is found to actually contain cancer after hysterectomy.  My lining was 7.6mm in 2019 and 8.3mm this year…I also had postmenopausal bleeding on both occasions.

Hope everything comes back ok for you x

Thank you so much for answering x I thought this might be unusual and it’s quite lonely thinking about it constantly. It’s good to know there are lovely people out there happy to share their experiences. I am very grateful x 

I hope all goes well with your recovery x 

You didn’t say if you are postmenopausal or if you had any bleeding, both of which always require further investigation with an ultrasound and then depending on womb thickness a biopsy and/or hysteroscopy..my first polyps were in a difficult position so I had to have a general when they removed them…this time they were removed as an outpatient at the second attempt, the first time I was sent home due to high blood pressure..second time they were removed successfully..when hyperplasia was found I was told the recommended treatment would be a hysterectomy and the I was sent home from the first try as my blood sugars were too high…advised to wait three months, get blood sugar down and in the interim they took another womb biopsy (normal) and fitted a mirena coil to try and stop anything progressing.  As I said I’m at home now recovering, I’m very bruised, probably because I’m fat, I’m also recovering from a broken left arm…honestly 2023 can do one as far as I’m concerned, I’ll be glad to see the back of it!

It’s pointless telling you not to worry because you will, I would say stay away from Dr Google, he should be banished to outer space.

Most women don’t have cancer but even if they do it’s usually found very early and a hysterectomy is often the only treatment needed…

That sounds so awful, so many things happening in one year x Yes I am post menopausal and I had one episode of slight pink discharge (one morning and nothing since). They tried to do a hysterosopy twice in outpatients (with and without a camera) but couldn’t get through the cervix, apparently because of atrophy. It was so painful. So they’ve said I need to go under anaesthetic. The specialist said she couldn’t see any bleeding. It’s just so worrying and I can’t really talk to anyone about it at home without getting upset. So thank you so much for replying x
