A member asked:
I have adenomyosis with heavy bleeding w/clots that soak through my clothes.pap smear had endometrial cells.could this be a sign of cancer?

Not cancer: Endometrial cells on pap is not a sign of cancer. Adenomyosis can explain heavy bleeding and cramping, but doesn't rule out cancer. Make certain your concerns and communication with your doctor is very good.
