I'm 52, perimenopause I think, still monthly periods, had postcoital bleeding, had US, D&C, hysteroscopy. Only finding was 2 uterine polyps which were removed. Pathology showed proliferative pattern endometrium, prolonged estrogen effect, stromal breakdown (which I think is normal for menstrual cycle), haven't talked to Dr. yet, but I work in the hospital dept. and I transcribed my own report. Dr. said uterus was anteverted 8 cm. Even tho it's not enlarged, could the anteverted uterus cause urinary incontinence with sneezing and coughing? I did not ask my Dr. this as I'm too embarrassed but I may ask when she calls with biopsy results. Also since I still have monthly periods, so no hormone imbalance, could I still have perimenopause symptoms? The ones I notice most are hot flashes, palpitations, forgetfulness. I also have a low back ache after lying in bed all night which gets better as I move about, and tingling in feet. X-rays show mild arthritis. Diabetes and thyroid normal. Neurontin was no help. Antiarthritic no help so far. Could this aching in back and feet tingling be related at all to perimenopause? Thank you.
