My mother is 55, is suffering from extreme bleeding from the last two weeks. She had her menopause last year, however, the bleeding began earlier this year. On consulting a doctor, she was advised to take regestrol for 3 months. When the issue did not resolve, she underwent a dnc procedure, during which the doc inserted marena medicine. But just after the one week of the procedure, her bleeding resumed. She is a lot for pain, also took trenaxa on suggestion of the doctor but bleeding did not stop. She has began eating regestrol again and the bleeding is somewhat controlled. All her tests are normal, her cancer tests are also negative. We are very worried, should we get the uterus removed? That seems like the last option. Please, please advise.

Post menopausal bleeding should be investigated prior to putting her on progesteron. Endometrial thickness should be evaluated by scan. Histopathology of endometrium should be done after d&c. Evenif it is negative for malignancy, I personally feel that she should undergo total hysterectomy with removal of both ovaries. This advice I give because she can go for endometrial atypia and malignancy at any time in this age group.

Hi! post menopausal bleeding is defenitily a concern. It wil be easier to guide if you can share your scan reports and biopsy reports. As your biopsy is normal you need not worry much. Sometimes morena insertion can cause bleeding, you can wait for a wk n see how your mom is responding to d prescribed regesterone. Hope she recovers soon.
