Hi, I am in a similar situation,age 56,  GP concerned with bleeding since changes to HRT ( to progesterone only from combined patches),after almost a year of no period.Had Ultrasound scan Tuesday, shows thickened lining, now awaiting urgent Gynae appointment within next few weeks.Am obviously worried about outcomes but also glad that it's all being dealt with quickly, it's all a bit overwhelming tbh.

My story is identical to yours. I should have had my hysteroscopy on 29th but my anxiety was through the roof so consultant asked me if I preferred general aesthetic. I jumped at the chance. Now I am waiting for a pre op appt and a telephone call for appt to have the hysteroscopy and biopsy done. It’s very overwhelming but reassuring that things are happening quickly.

Can I just say thank you to you all from the bottom of my heart for your support! You guys rock and I am so glad that I found you all here.  

Thank you MillekA. I definitely tend to think the worst. Need to work on changing my mindset! Have a fabulous holiday! Xx 

Sending you lots of positive energy. Have a great time in Cornwall. I think you’ll have some lovely weather as well. Just enjoy. 

Hi MillekA, I wanted you to know that all may not be bad. I just got my results and there’s no cancer. I was expecting a worse case scenario, dreading the results and now, the sense of relief is palpable. So, it doesn’t have to be bad news. Keep the faith xxx

That is wonderful news Ainberlin. So pleased for you. Sending lots of luck to everyone else too for good results and successful treatment if needed xx

That is great news x

Absolutely awesome news. I’m truly thrilled for you good news :)

Brilliant news Ainberlin. You must be so relieved. I’m wondering if they have been able to work out what has caused your symptoms? Well done though! x 

This is a good point. Something has caused the bleeding. They do mention a polyp and so I still need to chat with my gyno. Tbh, if she suggests a hysterectomy, I’ll do it. Can’t get cancer in something that isn’t there! I hope that everyone here is as blessed as I feel today. I’ll keep in the thread, to cheer you all on. We’ve got this, ladies xxx

Had my appointment today, was transvaginal scan , shows I probably have a polyp and womb is thicker than it should be , so to have a hysteroscopy.He sounded positive though due to me having had three children so that's reassuring.He also said my body will be producing more oestrogen due to my weight , he reckons it's a combination of this and my HRT.Hopefully I won't have long to wait for the hysteroscopy but am feeling better today about it all.

My bleeding was down to a polyp which was removed in my Hysteroscopy. Scan showed thick lining but results from my Hysteroscopy say a thin lining! I’m just waiting for biopsy results now but was reassured that it all looked ok during procedure 

I am feeling so much better about it all now, hopefully it's the polyp and nothing more sinister for both of us 

Yeah I’m sure it will be fine for you. Sounds like you have the same problem as me  

Have had a phone call to say my consultant wants to see me on Friday morning for a follow up after all my tests. I’ll be glad to know my results but worried too. I’ve been asked to go to the gynaecology oncology department so I’m expecting to be told they have found something. Dreading it but want to know at the same time. 

Wishing you all the very best for Friday. It may not be as bad as you think, but if the results are not as you would like, rest assured it will all be treatable. Do take someone with you on Friday. Do let us know the outcome. Best of luck. 

I went to gynaecology oncology dept for my hysteroscopy … it might not mean anything; maybe that’s just where they discuss these matters.

Thank you so much Miss MayMay. Yes my daughter is coming with me. I’ll keep everyone updated on here. At least this awful wait will be over, although it’s only been a week since my MRI and all the tests have been done within 3 weeks. 3 cheers for the NHS!! 

Thanks AliG - I’ll try and keep positive.

Will be thinking of you on Friday, as everyone else has said , it will all be treatable if it is cancer x

Absolutely I had all the necessary tests so quickly as well. To be honest with you, I don’t think I would have the heart again to say anything negative about the NHS. They have been absolutely brilliant. The doctors and nurses have been just so supportive and made me feel like a queen. Whatever the outcome, I really hope you have the best experience. Keep us updated.x
