A bit of a quandary as lot of spotting initially, but today bleeding – pale pink watery, not bright red or brown – a lot heavier filling couple of pads.
I read somewhere that bleeding can continue for up to 10 days but wasn't expecting it to get heavier like it has today.
Anyone else have anything like this?
I have a thin endometrium – it was too thin to biopsy! So, I can't think it's the lining shedding. Bit confused tbh

Hi Jane,
Thank you so much for asking – much appreciated.
I didn't hear back from the hospital but waited a few days and as things finally seemed to be lessening decided I would wait until I got results back rather than chasing them again. I do still have spotting, but it's a different colour than when I originally went to GP about postmenopausal bleeding.
I'm taking the view that the polyps are gone and until I know the pathology there is nothing that could be treated now, feeling reassured that discharge has got lighter rather than heavier, hoping for benign results. If the results do come through benign I feel I should make an appointment with the GP to discuss. If it's abnormal then discussions would be in a different context with the hospital. Feel like I'm caught in a bit of an abyss right now.
I will be able to chase the result with the hospital next week, I think and can give them an update then.
I hope all is well with you, Jane. Once again, thank you for checking in with me.
Kind regards,
