Hi Ladies I am having a major panic as a week or so ago i started with sore boobs n then felt really pms like down n depressed and headachy and then had some spotting which went on to a very light period. i have not had a period since coming off norethetirone to thin my womb lining so its been 18 months. I went to drs on advice Wednesday and hes got me straight in at hosp monday for a biopsy n scan.

    There may be all sorts of reasons for it so don't panic! Your doctor may be just 'red flagging' you to make sure you are seen soon. Mine did that and it turned out I had Cysts and fibroids.

    Hi Deezy

    Do you take Progesterone pills to help with your hormanes. If so the progesterone pill can cause sore boobs it can also cause bleeding so can estrogen even if you are in peri or in menopause these two medications can make you bleed and give you sore boobs. 

    You should ask your doctor or you should call this number 1-800-FDA-1088 they can tell you right out what progesterone pills can due and it can bring on a period too. Read the side effects
