I had post menopausal bleeding in January 2024. I contacted my Dr immediately who referred me for a Hysteroscopy. Unfortunately my diagnosis was Endometrial Cancer. I asked why this had not shown up on my smear test from late October 2023 and was told that smear tests do not detect Endometrial Cancer, at the moment there is no screening for Endometrial Cancer (Womb Cancer)  Please ring your doctor as a matter of urgency and insist that he refers you for a Hysteroscopy then you can get some answers. Once you have had this test, you will have more idea of what is happening. I had a full modified radical hysterectomy in April by Robotic surgery. I was discharged from hospital the day after surgery and to be honest, it wasn't anywhere near as bad as I expected. Best to get it all checked out. x

Thank you for taking the time to reply. I’m sorry you have had to go through this and hope you continue to make a good recovery. It’s useful to know what procedures to ask the GP for!  

Please update us when you get some answers. I found it good to chat to others in a similar situation. 

Will do! GP appointment on Tuesday.

Went to GP on Tuesday and also had smear test. GP referred me under the 2 week pathway and I am being seen for an internal scan on Tuesday. I’ve had no more bleeding - it seems to be very light spotting for 2 day every month ( for last 3 months.) GP wasn’t a bit reassuring unfortunately. Now I gave this appointment I am more worried . It’s becoming real I guess
