Hi, my mother, 52, is post-menopausal, obese (91. 1 kgs), recently hypertension (bp 120/80 with meds) has a case history of gastritis and spondylitis. She has bowel problems since her gastritis. On 21 feb she had a vaginal bleeding and then on 31st march. We got checked her up by a doctor. The tvs has revealed "1.19 cm endometrium, thickened and homogenous" rest all normal. No signs of a tumor too in the tvs, uterus size normal, myometrium & pouch of douglas clear, both ovaries and kidneys good. There will be an endometrial biopsy next wednesday. Will it be late by then? She hasn't taken a single medicine till now. We are still tensed about any form of uterine cancer? She has been going to the bathroom 4 5 times since last 2 days, maybe in tension. Is this normal? Is this cancer? What is the chances of total cure if it's cancer? Will she survive? Please help me on this doctors. This is eating us up.

Dear lybrate-user ji regarding your mom's case, bleeding per vaginum post menopausal may be due to atrophic vaginitis that occurs to such ladies in 4-5 years after menopause. Other reasons can be cervical polyps, uterine hyperplasia (ruled out be tvs). Let us wait for endometrial biopsy and get the results. Other symptoms are just psychological due to anxiety. I would like to have a chat with you first and if possible, pls connect via a pvt chat. Have a nice day!
