I am 44 years old. Through an ultrasound it was found the endometrial lining was thicker than normal. I was given a medication to bleed. I had my period just days ago. The first day I had a tissue released...like a sac/tissue/lining. The second and third day were normal...no heavy bleading. I stopped bleeding after the third day. I have constant pain in my lower pelvic area. It is non stop. I can tolerate it...but its there all the time. I do not have any other discomforts. I have 4 children and never had any health issues before. Three months ago and earlier, during my periods, I would bleed heavily during the first 2 days. Do you think I might have cancer in the uterus?
i dont see my doc til the 6th of may,had a pap done it was normal but my uterus came back with cell change the uterine lining has been thick for 5 months now,she thinks it may be a polyp,my mom and just about every women on her side had uterine cancer i had precancerous cells on my cervix 17 years ago and had over 1/2 of my cervix burnt off.
i just had the same thing, 2 ultrasounds, they told me my lining was thick. put me on provera for 30 days. everything i keep reading says this happens in premenopausal, etc. i'm 31... and, everything i read says something about cancer. my grandma had cervical cancer when i was a baby. guess i'm a little concerned, too.
I was told that my uterine lining is thicker than normal at an ultrasound I had recently. No explanation as to what might cause this either. I am having a lap done this coming 16th, we will see what they find then, good luck. I have been looking around the internet & can't seem to find an answer as to what this means.
Thank you so much for your response! :-)
I am still being very mental about this because the unknown just brings me down.
I am an impatient patient!
Anyone else out there...?
Thanks so much...
