Re: Increased risk for endometrial cancer
Anna,
I understand the freaked out feeling, trust me. I was so happy to have a fibroid diagnosed and not endometrial cancer.
I am your age and went in and out of menopause starting a year after chemo. My body can't make up its mind, and you might be experiencing a little of this too. Your FSH blood work showed the status of your body at the time. Things change. If I spend time around women who are young and fertile my body starts to mimic them and I get periods.
The transvaginal ultrasound will show the thickness of the lining of the uterus. If you have cancer it should show in the greater thickness of the lining. It also shows the status of your ovaries, etc. So normal is a very good indication of health. this is how they can tell what is going on with the lining of the uterus without a biopsy.
By the time you see my post you and your doctor will likely already have a good plan in place.
