Post Menopausal bleeding

Hi everyone, 

Just wondered if anyone had this before!! I had Mirena coil removed just over one year ago. I am 53 years old. I had no bleeding or spotting following the removal of the coil for over a year.

Two days I started spotting light brown blood, which then went on to resemble a period of dark brown blood. I have lower back pain also. I was wondering if I should ring my GP as I thought I had gone through the Menopause early. I also had some small fibroids about 3 years ago, which were not suspicious. 

Was quite worried as I have been passing urine more often also.

    I'm sorry to hear that you're dealing with some health concerns at the moment. We'd suggest anyone who has abnormal bleeding speak with their GP as they will be best placed to advise you and arrange any appropriate tests or referrals. 

    I hope things settle for you soon and the GP is able to put your mind at ease. 

    Best wishes,
