Hi! I've been in menopause for over a 1 1/2, I'm 54 and all of a sudden I am having shortness of breath, went to the ER had EKG and all the other work ups for cardio and respiratory. Am a okay. The only thing I have done is up my estrogen patch from 0.025 to 0.0375 due to panic attacks. I am also taking progesterone (compound pharmacy) . When this started I went back down to 0.025 patch. This has all happened in the past month. Anyone have any advice.
We just got the pap results, doctor said that everything is ok, whan happened is that my wife is not at menopause already, she is entering into, the recomendation is to take note about this period date and monitor the next one to be 100% sure when the menopause starts.
Thanks god, this was not serious.
Regards
HI,
Any bleeding however small in amount, occurring after menopause requires further investigations. This bleeding can be because of cervical erosion, polyps, or cervical cancer. Pap smear and ultrasonography of the pelvis should be done. Consult a gynaecologist for an evaluation.
Hope this helps.
