Hi
im 56 and was sent to 2ww clinic for lost menopausal bleeding 2 weeks ago, had t vag scan which showed thickening if lining , hysteroscopy showed large polyp which they removed .
Ive now been given follow up appointment as the polyp biopsy was suspicious of endometrial intra epithelial neoplasia …. Am I right in thinking this is the same as atypical endometrial hypertrophy ?
Anyone else had this situation and what was the outcome? I’m guessing hysterectomy is suggested due to the ongoing risk of developing cancer ?
also they’ve said I may need another hysteroscopy next week at the appointment it took me days to get over last one .
im grateful for any input from you lovely ladies
thanks x
