The Woman With Bleeding She Thought Was “Normal”

Share this:

Kavitha, 47, came to me after months of heavy, irregular periods. She brushed it off as menopause transition. But her hemoglobin was dangerously low—6.5 g/dL.

I performed a transvaginal ultrasound: endometrial thickening. A biopsy showed complex hyperplasia with atypia—precancerous. We proceeded with a hysterectomy, and pathology confirmed early-stage endometrial cancer.

She recovered well, and now tells her friends, “Bleeding isn’t always just hormones.”

Abnormal uterine bleeding in midlife is never “just menopause” until ruled out. Early investigation saves lives.
