Update: The results of my biopsies were negative for cancer. My Dr said the reason for my spotting is most likely due to vaginal atrophy and is recommending I start vaginal Estrogen cream,

@daisy17. Bravo! This is very good news. Do you think you will use the vaginal estrogen cream?

I was prescribed estradiol for several years and I found it worked very well for me. It was recommended that I stop using it as a precaution after I was diagnosed and had a hysterectomy for endometrial cancer that was estrogen-positive (not at all an unusual, by the way). When I was using estradiol I carefully read the literature and talked with my gynecologist. Estradiol is considered a topical and barely any of the estrogen is absorbed into the bloodstream so I was told, and the literature confirmed, that it is safe for us to use. If you have doubts about using it then it's something to talk with your doctor about.

Anyway, congratulations again.
