I had premature ovarian failure at age 33 and have had no periods for 15 years. For all that time i have been on HRT called climesse.I have started bleeding every day for the past month with no previous bleeding. I have been to the doc and he is arranging an urgent appointment with a gynaecologist. The thing is I had CIN 11 cervical dysplasia treated at age 20 then had normal smears for several years, then stupidly i did not have a smear from 1997 until about 6 months ago. This came back as an unsuitable speciman, it was repeated 3 months later, this also came back as a unsuitable specimen. So what i am trying to ask you out there is, could it be a return of cervical dysplasia or what could it be. The doc said it is definitely not fibroids.I am 47 and am frightened it is cancer. Has anyone been in the same situation and what was the diagnosis, Thanks

I don't know anything about cervical dysplasia. Two years ago, my sister had unexplained HEAVY bleeding after menopause. She was diagnosed with uterine cancer and had her uterus removed. It had not spread and she is fine, although she gets tested for things every several months. I hear that uterine cancer is very treatable because, since the uterus can hold a baby all those months, the cancer usually stays contained in the uterus.
I wish you luck. :)
