Brief history. 2019 , contracted sepsis following a steroid injection in Rt knee. As I was being prepared for theatre to flush the joint I needed the loo. Passed large clots and this continued after the op for around a week. Referred for Ultrasound and hysteroscopy. Polyps and cell samples removed, all came back clear.
Christmas Eve 2020, the bleeding started again and continues to do so to date. Had the Ultrasound and hysteroscopy 05/02 . Consultant who did the procedure advised there was thickening to the lining of my womb and “It does not look normal”. Whereas the last time, different Consultant said immediately after the hysteroscopy that after scraping down into the fresh cells, things looked ok. Obviously neither could say for definite, until they got/get the lab results. I’m now in limbo until the second set of results come back - hopefully within 2 weeks. The Consultant this time prescribed Provera 5mg x 2 daily to ease the bleeding.
Has anyone else with postmenopausal bleeding at my age experienced anything similar? Have you been prescribed Provera and how did you find it? Did you experience any of the side effects mentioned on the info leaflet? I sailed through the menopause aged 45 - 47 and have had no problems what so ever, until the sepsis incident and can’t help wondering if there’s a connection. TIA
