constant spotting in peri-menopause

Posted , 5 users are following.

Hi my dear friends,

I've had constant spotting during peri-menopause. I had my 3rd hysteroscopy last month and the doctor was unable to remove the fibroid he believed was causing the problem. Now he wants to do another hysteroscopy in the hospital with different equipment he believes will be able to remove the fibroid. I'm so tire of these procedures. I passed out in the last one. I just want to wait this out and hope when I reach menopause the bleeding will finally stop. Has anyone experienced this? I just want this and ALL the other symptoms to just stop. Thank you for listening.

      Thank you, Katy. It's so frustrating. It seems like all we do is wait. Take care.

    Hi - feel your pain

    I am post menopause and booked in for my 2nd hysteroscopy as may have polyps from cancer treatment.

    Buggered if you do and if you dont

    Try to get the support from your friends and family that you need at this trying time.

    I am staggered by the response on this portal, so, just goes to show it just needed someone (me) to ask for help
