Thank you for your reply. So you are menopausal and you also had a thickening of the uterine lining too?

Post menopausal 67. Yes kept going up from 6 than 7 than 8mm. I know the cortisone shots in hip cause spotting about week later. Don't know about thickening. But poloyps added to thickness.

I'm 68 postmenopausal since 51. Using Estradiol vaginal cream because I have pessary for prolapse. I get steroid injections for arthritis in both shoulders and 1 thumb. Feb 2nd I had injections in both shoulders and the 1 thumb, never got all 3 at the same time before. 2 weeks later I had spotting. Spotting only on tissue for 3 days. Went to gyno had ultrasound with 7mm uterine thickening. Im taking 100mg progesterone since and go the 24th of April for repeat ultrasound. I believe it was just a perfect storm combination that caused the spotting. I hope the thickening is down below 5 as my gyno wants. At least I know that others experienced this too.
