I AM TOO HIGH OF A RISK FOR BIRTH CONTROL PILLS, PLUS I AM 49 YEARS OLD
AND DON'T GET MY PERIOD ANYMORE. THE BLEEDING SHOULDN'T EVEN BE THERE
AFTER ALL THIS TIME. I WENT THROUGH MENOPAUSE IN 2001, THAT'S WHY THE
BLEEDING IS CAUSING BE TO BE QUITE CONCERNED. I KNOW SOMETIMES BLEEDING
AFTER MENOPAUSE CAN BE A SIGN OF SOMETHING NOT RIGHT, BUT SINCE MY DR.
SAID HE DIDN'T NEED TO SEE ME FOR SIX MONTHS I THOUGHT MAYBE I WAS OVER
REACTING, BUT I ALSO DON'T WANT TO END UP WITH CANCER OF THE UTERUS OR
CERVIX.
