Do gynecological cancers always include bleeding?

@missmonroe This is all rather puzzling. I'm inclined to agree with @rob09 and suggest that you follow up on your symptoms. The symptoms you describe are not a normal part of post-menopause. You commented that you have a long history of gynecological problems. Did you have a hysterectomy in the past? Any other gynecological procedures? Like @gennyg my symptoms were similar. and I also had ultrasound and hysteroscopy. This how my endometrial cancer was diagnosed.
Since you joined Mayo Clinic Connect and are asking these questions you are worried that there is something there. I'm assuming that is what brought you here. So, it's not at all a waste of time to find another doctor for another opinion. Will you do that and let me know?

The last doctor I saw did perform a hysto. I agreed to it. I said he could do it even if I did not have cancer. Cancer was my suspicion at the time. I am way past baby days. I just don’t need the parts. I’ve had fibroids removed a couple times along time ago. Those things actually twisted. Incredibly painful. I could only crawl to the bathroom to get painkillers. It was awful.
I will let you know if I decide to pursue it. I’m just a little bit concerned, but the doctor doesn’t seem to be, and I am not one to rush to the doctor over something that might and is probably harmless. I just figured some women will be in pain indefinitely, and I am one of them.
Well, thanks for your input.
