Hi

iam a 52 year old post menopausal woman. My last period was 4 years ago. I had an episode of post menopausal bleeding at the weekend. Since then I have had cramping pains. 
My GP has referred me on the 2ww pathway and has said I may have endometrial cancer. 
I have been given a consultant appointment on Friday. 

what symptoms did you all have? 

  • Hi Georgiegirl72

    I am an almost 62 yr old post menopausal woman , I had 1 small bleed phoned the DRs was put on the 2week pathway , I didn't have any cramping pains that were noticeable to me but I then had a hysteroscopy /biopsy and from then on I did have pelvic pain/cramping pain , I also realised how bloated I was and more so after the biopsy 24/12/24 I put it down to Xmas but then realised it wasn't normal .

    Welcome to the Womb group. 

    I am sorry to heat that you have had some bleeding and cramping pains. 

    My only symptom was a heavy bleed. 

    My first appointment was an ultrasound and when something was spotted I went on to have a biopsy, followed by a CT scan. 

    I hope that your appointment on Friday goes ok. In the meantime if there is anything you want to ask about, please do so.

  • Hi Georgiegirl

    I’m 59 and had heavy post menopausal bleeding, fatigue and cramping for a few weeks so had blood tests, ultrasound and a hysteroscopy with biopsy. The biopsy results came back positive with a Grade 3 cancer and my MRI is tomorrow afternoon. The results will be shared with a multidisciplinary team next Wednesday and hopefully from there I will know when my hysterectomy will take place. Wishing you all the best and sending a hug.

    I'm 59, until Saturday Sweat smile,  and also had post menopausal bleeding and cramping. My GP put me on 2ww referral, I had an ultrasound 2 days later and saw gynae consultant a week after referral. It all happened fairly quickly.  I had a hysteroscopy under general, an MRI & a CT scan all within 4 weeks of referral.

    Best wishes for your appointment on Friday, keep us up to date.
