Hi everyone. I was wondering how long it took to get your Biopsy results back? I've been post-menopause for 3 years, and finally started HRT nearly 8 months ago, hoping it would help with the hot flushes and mood swings. I was told that it's normal to get a bit of bleeding when you first start taking HRT(I'm on the Fem seven conti patches and Estroil cream). But I was lucky so I thought, as had no bleeding or spotting, that was until 6 and a half months later, I noticed some blood on the 7th of this March, which gradually got heavier, and lasted 6 days.
So first thing Monday morning on the 9th rang my GP, they were pretty good and booked me in for a same-day appointment a few hours later. my GP did some swabs and referred me under the 2-week pathway, swabs came back clear, and i then had my appointment for pelvic and transvaginal scans on Friday the 20th, Gp rang me on the monday morning (23rd) to say as the scan showed my Endometrial lining was a bit higher at 6.5, so she was referring me for a biopsy which I had on the 8th of this month. Since my first bleed on the 7th, I've had 3 more bleeds lasting 3 days and two, and I also bleed for 2 days after my biopsy, which I know is normal.
Just wondering the rough time frame I can expect to wait? The doctor who did my biopsy said within 2-3 weeks, but I've also read that if it was something of concern, I'd hear back sooner?. I have really bad anxiety anyway and am finding it so hard to not worry and think the worst, especially as ive been getting pretty painful pelvic cramps. Not sure if it's just my anxiety bringing it on or if it's to do with my womb and something is wrong. My GP was brilliant and has prescribed me Diazepam for now to help me, it takes the edge off, but I'm still a bit of a mess mentally tbh.
Does anyone think Id of heard back by now if it was anything serious?, (I did ring yesterday btw and was told the results aren't back yet).
Thank you to anyone who replies
