Hi Lisa,

I am 49 too and have the problem for over a year now. At first it was severe back pain and I went to a spine doc to check it. Did MRI and they said I have a DDD what is usual in my age and nothing to worry about. And just after couple of month I started to bleed. And I was bleeding for 1,5 month until I couldn't keep it anymore (dizziness, light head, loosing weight, no energy, etc.) My gynecology put my on Progesterone and my bleeding stopped in two days. But I felt terrible - my iron was so down, I had severe anemia, terrible mood, heart palpitation, high blood pressure, panic attacks, and so on... It took almost a year to be normal again, I started to take Lexapro 0.5 mg what helped too (I still on it now). Long story to be short - I still have a low back pain, it's never gone, some days it's better but some days it's terrible. One more time I had a bleeding just in a year after the first one. I didn't wait this time and started the Progesterone (for couple of weeks only) earlier and it helped again.

Good luck with everything. I am researching the topic all the time and found that when I am not eating gluten, dairy and sugar my back pain is almost disappearing but as soon as I started to eat everything again it's back :-(

I was on norethesterone for two weeks and my bleeding stopped. But after I stop to take the meds my period started in a week again (like brown discharge) and my doc said it's normal. And in 8-10 days it stopped itself without any meds.

I been on them two weeks now and still no sign of stopping I keep going dizzy too but I think that could be due to my blood pressure dropping low which they said is due to the blood loss my doctor is now sending me for two scan to see what going on
