A member asked:
If 60 yr old woman with no prev gynecol problem got unopposed estrogen for 6 mos, should she have pelvis us to check effect on endometrial lining?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Good idea.: A pelvic exam, pap smear cytology & transvaginal ultrasound should be done. If there is post menopausal bleeding or spotting, d & c should be performed. Do not forget annual mammography.
