I had my initial consultant appointment this week, following a post menopausal bleed.
And for the second time, (I think the GP was the first), I was asked if it was accompanied by cramps.
Does anyone know the relevance of cramps?
Hi welcome to our spot in the Online Community, hopefully someone will be along to answer soon. I was long post menopause and I had pink mucous like spotting over a couple of days. I was going to ignore it but my bestie nagged me, glad she did.
I didn't have any cramps but I think they can be associated with fibroids, endometriosis or ovarian or womb cancer. Once you hear any more come back and chat about it.
It’s always helpful to others if you write a little something (or a lot) about yourself and your journey to date. You can enter it into your profile (click on your username and select “Profile”) It’s helpful to other members with a similar diagnosis who can then hopefully answer your questions. It also means that you don't have to keep repeating yourself. You can amend or update it at any time. If you’re not sure what to write, just click on my username.
It might also be a good idea to download this booklet Understanding Womb (Endometrial) Cancer. I found it invaluable on my journey.
Click on the link I’ve created to find out more information covering diagnosis and treatments for Womb cancer.
You might also find this link to what to take in my overnight bag useful for when you have surgery.
