Posted , 68 users are following.
Hi I am 53 hadn't had a period for over a year then started bleeding on Monday, went straight to doctors had ultrasound the next day no cysts or fibroids discovered then had call today to go to see GP who informed me I have thickening of the lining of the womb, so have to have more tests, :-( I am so afraid it's cancer especially with the speed the tests etc have been happening, blood tests were ok, doctor said I will have a diagnosis within two weeks, I am absolutely petrified, not coping at all, I do suffer with very bad anxiety too:-(

Hi susan
try not to worry .. i know its easier said than done..
its normal practice to have further investigations hun...
it may not be as worrying as younthink... its may be much about nothing they just being cautious, it may not be as thick as you think, or it may even be Hyperplasia ..
How to Treat Endometrial Hyperplasia
In most cases removal of excessive uterine tissue during the diagnostic D&C is all that is needed to treat endometrial hyperplasia.
Postmenopausal women on unopposed estrogen therapy who have recurrent endometrial hyperplasia should discuss with a gynecologist the options of either stopping the therapy or supplementing it with a progestational agent.
In premenopausal women who have recurrent endometrial hyperplasia, oral contraceptives or a progestational agent such as Depo-Provera may be prescribed for a few months to thin the endometrial lining.
please try not to think the worst hun...
