I am 53 years old with post-menopausal bleeding. I had a biopsy last month, which was negative. I started bleeding again. I went to another doctor for a second opinion and just learned that my endometrial lining is 9mm thick. I am scheduled for a D&C next Tuesday. Should I just ask the doctor to perform a hysterectomy so I can be proactive? I don t want to take any chances with cancer.
