I'm probably worrying over nothing, but wondered if anyone had similar experience.
This is in relation to thickened endometrium, spotting, and heaviness/achiness in lower abdomen.
I've had heavy and irregular periods for the past 5 years or so, and am quite certain that I'm perimenopause. At the beginning of the year, I asked my GP for advice as I was really not feeling my best, and thought it was thyroid related. GP did loads of tests. Thyroid was fine, but other bloods came back showing I had low ferritin levels, raised blood sugar and raised CA125 (59). I had glucose blood test which was fine. I'm on iron tablets, and do feel better, when I remember to take them.
Because of the raised CA125, I was sent for an abdominal ultrasound. All was fine, except thickened endometrium of 12mm, which the sonographer said was high for midway through my cycle. He referred me back to my GP, and GP referred me to gynaecology. Gynaecology said they had a long waiting list and it might be 6 months before I get a letter to be seen. That was almost 4 months ago, and haven't heard anything since.
Prior to this month, my period has always been irregular, usually anything from 23 to 32 days, but over the past 2 years have had a couple of longer gaps of 42 and 65, which is part of why I think I'm perimenopause. I'm now day 70. I had some spotting on days 42, 43, 44 and 52, and abdominal/back aches have been on and off for the whole two months. I am also getting pain during sex, and lots of aching afterwards.
I'm getting myself worked up that there could be something wrong, and finding myself googling several times a week trying to find answers.
Any advice would be appreciated.
