Hi I am 54 and in post menopause by 7 year and I never had HRT. I am obese just under 16 stone and have PCOS, no children. I have a neurological condition which has caused disability. I have been experiencing a wet clear discharge for sometime and because I had a UTI a few times in a row I did a PH test in the spring and it showed up as dark green, which indicated BV so I started using gel treatments, five packs, probiotics and it was not going and then around 2 - 4 weeks ago thin stringy discharge started turning pink or just having a bit of pink in it. I noticed a bad smell from it. I don't get blood on my underwear so its not heavy or red. 

I went doctor for swab thinking its BV mixed with Virginal atrophy bleeding and got referred to gynaecology and got seen on Monday. I read leaflet and seen the small chance cancer and thickened womb and thought na I wont need a camera. Wrong before I new it I am being told I have a thickened womb  and need a camera then a biopsy because doc couldn't see any polyps due to thickening of the womb. I had gas and air and braved it out.  I said to the consultant after I just thought I had an infection . I have to wait for 3 weeks and I already have an anxiety disorder where I will go to the extremes. I can't see past results. I was told it could be pre cancerous and I not told anything about Endometrial hyperplasia. I looked that up to try and give me hope its something else, as I do fit that but I know in one type it can heighten the risk of cancer. I had my BV swap results today and they are normal.

If I get a phone call it will be clear

but if I get a letter I have to go in for a proper talk 

The wait is it really hard.
