Question:
|
|
|
| I have been to the Health Dept and had A Pap done and all was fine. The problem I have is an unexplained vaginal bleeding for 4 months. I have also got a discoloring of the outside of each breast with a coldness to the touch. The color is a blue-purple color. Also my uterous is the size of a 13 week pregnancy but I am not pregnant. I had my tubes cut,tied and burnt 16 years ago. Do you have any clue what in the world is going on? Thanks

| A normal Pap smear does not give a diagnosis for bleeding. An enlarged uterus such as you describe can be the cause of the bleeding, and clarification from the doctor you saw regarding this is necessary. For example, you could have benign uterine fibroids present. It is not possible to diagnose breast complaints except in person, so I would recommend followup with your doctor. Best wishes
