    I had it 2 years post and I
    I had it 2 years post and I had polyps and masses in my uterus then my uterus closed up and they could not do a biopsy so I had to have a hysterectomy turns out it was not cancer this happened in 2007 so I would go to your GYN now do not pass go do not collect $200.00
    I do not want to scare you but if it has been over a year some thing is up.

    Keep us posted. Qwe

    don't get me wrong
    I would still go see my gyn or talk to my onc - however, when I had surgery (and had missed 6 periods) the surgery threw me into a period. only the one tho - then chemo took over and have been free for another 7 months now...

    Do not pass GO
    Run, don't walk to your gynecologist. I was 4 months out of chemo when I had what seemed to be a period. This was wrong, since chemo threw me into full blown menopause. So I immediately saw my gyn and guess what? Yep, I had uterine cancer. It was really early days, so all I needed was the surgery, no chemo. But when something doesn't seem right, it probably isn't, so go get checked out.

    Hugs,
    Kirsten
