MENOPAUSE LABS: MENOPAUSE IS DEFINED AS NOT HAVING HAD PERIODS FOR A FULL CALENDAR YEAR OR 12 CONSECUTIVE MONTHS IN THE APPROPRIATE SETTING * EG- AGE). IF YOU HAVE HAD APPROPRIATE SAMPLING OF YOUR UTERINE LINING AND OVARIAN CYST AND IT WAS READ OUT BY A PATHOLOGIST AS BENIGN, THEN THE SAMPLES DID NOT INDICATE CANCER. IF YOU ARE CONCERNED, RETURN FOR PERIODIC FOLLOWUP AND HAVE YOUR PATHOLOGY SLIDES RE-REVIEWED.
