Post-meno And Vaginal Bleeding Posted: 05-01-05 08:00am
I'm new to the group and could use some
feedback. I'm 61 and have been in meno
since age 53. I've had slight vaginal
bleeding on and off for years. I had two
endrmetrial biopsies throughout those
years. Both negative.
I use monistat almost all the time as I
feel as if I have an infection. Not sure
that I always do as I also have severe
vaginal atrophy.
The doctors seem to think the atrophy
and/or using the monistat all the time is
causing it. I do have an appointment next
week for a sonogram.
Has anyone else had this experience and
can you shed some light for me? Each time
it happens I get scared but guess after so
many years it probably is a vaginal
problem.
Thanks.

There are natural alternatives for people
who want to get rid of their menopause
concerns.
Feel free to send me an e-mail and I will
send you free information to help you feel
like you're 18 again, but with better
judgement!
Thank you but i'm not interested in being
solicited online in forums for the
purposes of getting a sales pitch.

Oh but there are many people out there who
are looking for solutions. I believe once
people are educated, they can make better
decisions about their health.
All the best,

Spotting 5 Years After Menopause Posted: 06-20-05 23:54pm
I am spotting very lightly every two weeks
now for the past 6 weeks and it's been 5
years since my periods stopped. Can this
be normal? And yes, I would appreciate
any help. Email is nhiltner@ao

You need to be concerned about bleeding
post meno
get a biopsy
be careful about bioidentical hormones
unless they're formulated by a
professional (pharmacist) because
otherwise they're wildly different in
concentrations
wild yam is nonsense
natural progesterone can offer different
doses and in a cream it's highly
nonspecific as to the dose applied, creams
are meant to circumvent the liver
"enterohepatic recycling" and require
lower dose...But it's like throwing an
anvil at an ant...
Just go to pros, not internet nobodys
without even a bachelor's degree

Periods Happen Posted: 04-18-06 13:08pm
:roll: i'm 57 & I went through meno
about 6 years ago. Since then, I have had
2 periods, complete with cramping the day
before and tender breasts weeks before.
It seems to happen whenever I spend some
time with my daughter or sister who
happens to be having their period. It
will trigger a period. I think there's a
lot doctors don't know yet. (it's like my
body needs to compete in the childbearing
arena even though I am on the bench!) btw,
I had a very painful uterine exam after
the first time it happened. They scraped
& jabbed me with a straw-like stick
for the most horrible 30 seconds, followed
by severe cramping. Never again! Test
results for cancer or other problems?
Negative. I think my body is just winding
down slower than most.

strange
things happen when we're going through
menopause. Each one of us is unique in
our symptoms, too.
