Hello hope someone can help put my mind at rest?? I have been having irregular periods on and off for about 12 months, this really kicked in in July when I had 2 in 1 month. I have also had some spotting after sex but not every time (have been diagnosed with cervical erosion in the past). Went to docs in August due to this and having pain in left side and hip. This pain has now gone off but in October I had a period followed by 2 clear days and then brown discharge until my next period. Then this month I have had a period followed by 2 clear days and then another 6/7 days of brown discharge!!!! I have now been clear of any discharge for a week and am waiting for my period to start. Considering I have such HA I really did think that when I went to see Gynae today he would just say I was perimenopausal and it was my hormones but the first thing he said was to have an endometrial tissue sample and when I pushed him he said to rule out cancer. When I asked if it could just be perimenopause (I'm 41) he said I havent any other symptoms ( I forgot to tell him I have had occasional night sweats). I asked if I could have scan instead and he agreed and said if that rules out problem with womb lining then I shouldnt have to have tissue sample. He's doing a hormone blood test too. I am now completely panicced and all I can think about is uterine cancer!!! can anyone help :wacko:
