Just read your message. I hope you have found out the cause of your
mentrual woes, as your symptoms are similiar to cervical cancer,
especially the blackish discharge and your history of cervical
dysplasia. Have they told you what stage your dysplasia is? and have
you be informed that your risk for Vulva cancer has increased
substantialy. Hope your Doctors have rectified your health problems.
c.c.
