What are some of the other symptoms of endometrial hyperplasia, besides
irregular periods, etc? I don't have any symptoms of bloating, cramps,
etc. Today and yesterday I haven't bled much at all. I was just
wondering if there are any other symptoms. I will be making an
appointment with a doctor soon. Thanks for your help.
