Hi There,
postmenopausal bleeding can be due to a benign growth such as a polyp, a precancerous condition of the lining of the uterus such as endometrial hyperplasia, or a cancer inside the uterus.
The incidence of cancer goes up with age.
At 52, probably less than 10% of women with postmenopausal bleeding have uterine cancer. At age 85, about 75% of women with bleeding have cancer.
It would be unusual for ovarian cancer to manifest as postmenopausal bleeding.
It may be that your symptoms are related to some hormonal type of influence but hormones include thyroid, prolactin, in addition to estrogen.
take care
Thank you so much for responding to my post. I am feeling much less anxious today-thank heaven! I really appreciate your info-very helpful and I find it encouraging.
Merci!
