I'm 42 years old. For the past three years or so, I have had occasional off-cycle bleeding. I have already been curettage twice and the result showed nothing special (the last curettage was over a year ago). At this point, the bleeding had started again and the doctor referred me for an endometrial biopsy. I'm supposed to go in a few days. My question is as follows. Could something bad have developed in my uterus from the time of my last curettage until now (one year and three months)?
This, unfortunately, cannot be determined without diagnostic hysteroscopy and endometrial biopsy. It is also worth paying attention to the endocrine system and, if necessary, apply the appropriate treatment.
