Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am 58 years young I am experiencing frequent periods bright red blood with a lot of blood clots, . I was told 2 years ago I was peri-menopausal what ever the heck that means.........My last pap was 2 years ago and was normal but these frequent and large clots have me concerned, any advice please will help.
Hi I think you should consult a gynecologist for complete examination. Get a pelvic examination done by a gynecologist to rule out any cervical pathology. Also get a ultrasound done to see uterus and ovaries. If endometrial thickness is more than 4mm, you may need an endometrial biopsy to rule out any endometrial pathology. You can take some medicines like tranexamic acid to stop the bleeding. Hope it helps.
