Hi, i've just joined and thought i might get some help as i am very worried...i went for a scan today and they said i had thickening in the womb...i stupidly googled it and now i'm thinking the worse as cancer came up...i only went for the scan because of heavy periods...so heavy i need to take iron tabs as my iron and zinc are low...i just thought it was the start of menopause...anyone else had this and every thing ok! thanks alot!

im bleeding more since they did it and im geti g pains in my sides like a stitch. i feel real bloated all time to.
the dr said if its cancer il be havi g a hysterectomy. but he also said could be normal for me to have thickend womb and also with my age. the only thing that isnt normal is this constant bleed. i hate it its got worse and i have to wear pads i hate pads. just hope il be ok.

Thanks for letting me know how u are....not that i am much help to you...i don't know anyone in your situation bleeding for so long.....the only thing i can tell you is that there are tablets you can get from the dr to slow the bleeding down...they are called Tranexamic acid for heavy bleeding during periods...they do not stop it though, they just help if its heavy...i would have them myself but i don't like the side affects they can clot blood in other parts of your body and my family has a long history of blood clots thats how my mum and dad passed away...so dr will not give me them.
I wish i could be more help....i know how you feel though...i am at the point were i feel like begging the dr to refer me for a hysterectomy and just be done with the lot of it x
