Hi Everyone
I am a newbie here.
I am 49 years old, I have had no period for 11 months and then after a dog walk I discovered i was bleeding a little bit. This was 3 weeks ago. I was so anxious and I paid for a private scan for the following week. The bleeding or spotting last only a couple of days. I had the scan and everything was fine the sonographer put me at ease and she spent a long time looking and being thorough. I received a letter from the consultant to say that everything was normal my lining was 3.8mm and no follow up needed i also had a hysterscopy about 4 years ago which was normal.
About 10 days I started bleeding again so I thought it was just a bit delayed before it was only heavy for two days and then was very light I then took my sanitary pad off and 4 days later it came back again but just spotting and I still am spotting still.
I have made a private appointment with the consultant for Friday but I am very anxious, I am so frightened in case something was missed. All my smears are all up to date and fine. I just want to know if this could be perimenopause? I lost my dad on new years eve last year and still struggling with the grief.
Is anyone else experiencing this or can tell me this is normal?
as I am going out of my mind with worry, and worried about the bleeding, I just want to feel normal for a change
Thank you Ellie xxxx
