I am 51 years old and in perimenopause. I am on the second day of my clean days and did a bedikah this morning without a problem.

I had an endometrial biopsy this morning because of some irregular and extended spotting over the past two months. A sonogram shows that I have a fibroid which might be causing the problem or it might be just be perimenopause. For the last few years I have had some light spotting which I have learned to deal with by doing reduced bedikahs and wearing a panty liner.

Today, my doctor mentioned that she saw blood on my cervix before doing the biopsy. I hadn’t seen any bleeding so I didn’t know. She also said to expect bleeding from the biopsy for up to a week. I know to wear a liner to avoid problems with the spotting. But does the fact that the doctor saw blood on my cervix cause a problem even if there was no external bleeding until after the biopsy, and then only on the pad?
