Irregular Period, Painful, Had Bleeding, Tested For Abdominal Diseases. Is It Cancer?

Hi I'm a woman 35 years age, I'm 5 2" and my weight is 46kg. I've always been thin. Recently I've been getting sharp pains when I wake up and eat my breakfast. It's irregular but now frequent. Today I had a gush of small amount of bleeding but my period ended on Saturday. So its not period. It's not much blood and its brown. I'm going to get it checked but sadly my GP never takes anything I say seriously. She says I'm perfectly healthy. I will insist I get tested for stomach and other abdominal diseases. At this point it would be very helpful if you could direct me as to what I should ask for specifically. I'm obviously thinking "cancer". Today I suddenly felt exhausted and slept for half an hour although I could've done with a few hours because it didn't do much for me. Please help me or guide me?

Hi,
You have mentioned about sharp pain but the site of pain is not mentioned. Anyway abdominal pain should be carefully investigated. Bleeding after the end of period should also be investigated. Nothing to worry about cancer right now because there are lot of of other causes. You should be examined by a gynaecologist. After clinical examination he/she may have ordered investigations like ultrasound whole abdomen. Please visit a gynaecologist's office. Take care.
