Period issues: Anyone else?

I was 49 with endometriosis and adenomyosis and couldn't stop bleeding. My breasts were tender almost all the time. Now I was much older so I had a hysterectomy. My uterine symptoms are gone and those glorious menopause symptoms are almost constant. But you...you need to ask for testing for adenomyosis and maybe fibroids, at minimum. Can you message your doctor's office and call his nurse? Or schedule a follow-up appt? Be your best advocate.

@blueskies1530 I called their office this morning and have scheduled a follow-up to discuss these possibilities. I hadn't considered endometriosis or heard of adenomyosis before. I associated endo with pelvic pain, but haven't had that pain that I would have expected with that. I will absolutely be talking to him about it next week when I go in. Thank you so much!!
