So I had post menopausal bleeding after 2 1/2 years of no bleeding. I checked Dr.Google (lol) which said go to the dr. I did this, I had an ultrasound internal &external on the pelvic area. It came back with my uterine lining being at 13mm thick! With a ovarian cyst in one & unable to see the other. Also a suggestion of a mass under the thickened lining. I have had sharp pains in my lower & abdomen. Bloating that makes me look 5 months pregnant. The ultrasound said no signs of any fibroid cysts. Just wondering if any of you ladies have had the same? I'm scheduled for a D&C the end of march, my gyno has said she'd consider removing my uterus. To say the least I'm left anxious!! Thanks ladies!

    Hi Kim why would she consider removing your uterus until you have had results from d&c ?im waiting for a appointment for that procedure and a polyp removal due to cell change after a biopsy I've not even been told such a thing 😱 Can you get a 2nd opinion take care and keep us informed god bless 🙏🏻🙏🏻

      Hi Kerry, I actually have inquired about the hysterectomy. I feel as though if my body is doing this now& gave me a symptom (bleeding) if I don't remove the uterus, what if 10-15 years it happens again without any signs or symptoms??i am 48 years old. Which the Dr. Says is young to be post menopausal.Im more nervous to keep it rolleyes
