Hi,
I’m back again worrying myself silly!
I have HA and this whole hormone rollercoaster, really doesn’t help. I constantly think I have some life threatening illness.
So I previously posted about my skipping periods and going 11 months without a bleed, apart from 2 days of very light spotting.
I had a 7 day bleed in Feb. I think it was an anovulatory cycles as I had the copious discharge as if body was trying to ovulate. It then suddenly stopped and I started bleeding the next day,
Anyway since then I have had 2 occasions of very light pink discharge upon wiping which coupled with other symptoms, pointed to VA.
I started Vagifem 2 weeks ago and finished my daily dosing on Sunday. I now move to twice a week.
However, I haven’t noticed much improvement but I’ve felt quite crampy over the last couple of weeks and yesterday I had a fair bit of thick, pink/brown discharge.
I instantly panicked and got on the phone to the Dr. A nurse called back and said. It could be the vagifem, or it could just be part of the hormones but she will speak to my Gp and call me back as she could tell I was worrying and it might be worth having a scan.
I’m honestly petrified , mainly of Ovarian cancer.
My Mum thinks it’s just hormones and said at one point she had the type of discharge I’m describing daily for 6 months and that was hormones.
I think I’d be less worried if I hadn’t gone 11 months with only a show in September. As it now seems this is getting more regular.
Does this sound fairly common for peri?
I’m in such a state and now dreading that I might be referred and what they will find. 😭
