Bleeding bloating and constipation post meno

So I've got to see the GP for a pelvic exam.
I'm sure I will get an internal scan too as my DM has had advanced primary peritoneal cancer which was treated as ovarian chemotherapy wise and she had debulking surgery as her cancer returned with her having a huge pregnant looking belly.
I'm not overly concerned my symptoms are cancer.
Anyone else had constipation for ages a bloated belly with some weight gain and a post meno bleed that was just hormonal.

I'm almost 58 and DM was 64 when she had her diagnosis years ago.

Hopefully nothing but you should see GP asap with those symptoms.

Go and see your GP! With your mum’s history it’s the right thing to do.
Whats the point of asking non-medical strangers? Get yourself into “the system” for scans or whatever and take it from there.

I hope all goes well but best to be sure…..

So the scan showed an ovarian cyst.
Being rescanned every 4 months to keep an eye on as I'm post menopausal.
Good news day.
