I am a 58 years old. In February 2009, I had a trans-sphenoidal adenomatomy. Complications during surgery were a spinal fluid leak. Six weeks post surgery I was diagnosed with Diabetes Insipidis & I take Desmopressin daily for that. January 2007, I went through menopause--never having any bleeding or symptoms of a menstrual cycle until November 2010. I've had 5 episodes of post menopausal bleeding since then. The most recent, September 2012, has been extremely severe. I've gone through all the usual testing: bloodwork, uterine biopsy, intrauterine ultrasound, pelvic exam, etc. Everything is always negative. My question is: Could the pituitary surgery have caused my menstrual cycle to return? Right now, my GYN has me on 5 mg of Provera. Any comments or suggestions?View Thread
I am a patient at MD Anderson in Houston & I have to go for follow up MRI's and bloodwork until 2014. I see a neurosurgeon and endocrine Dr every year. Everything has always been fine. I mentioned the bleeding to my endocrine Dr and she doesn't seen to think there is a correlation. I will ask my GYN about the FSH and estradiol levels & if they checked for this when I had bloodwork this past Friday. Thank you for your input. I'm supposed to get results from the tests I had done on Friday, either today or Tuesday. Everything is always negative, which is good, but then no one can explain why this continues to happen. Thank you!View Thread
