Hi, I Am 53 Years Old And Have Been Told
Question: Hi, I am 53 years old and have been told that I am menopausal and should not have any bleeding. In December 2018, I had some bleeding and went to my OB and had my routine exam, ultrasound, and biopsy which all came back negative. I do have fibroid. I am a bodybuilder and take winsol, clenbetrol, anavrol to try to build muscle. They are natural supplements. Two days ago I had a slight pink discharge which went away immediately but today which is Monday, I had another slight discharge. I am working out more and lifting heavier than I normally do. I have an appointment with my OB but am concerned. Please help me put my mind at ease until my appointment. I am not having any other symptoms that would indicate a serious problem.
Brief Answer:
Can be due to heavy weight lifting.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
The mild pinkish discharge that you had can happen due to the stress of heavy weight lifting. Since all your reports are normal this is not likely to be a serious issue. The mild spotting in the postmenopausal years can also happen due to dryness of vagina due to low levels of estrogen. Using medicines like aspirin can also cause such a spotting. You can wait and see if it stops on its own in next few days.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
