I have a fibroid tumor in my uterus..I have spotting red and brown is this from the fibroid or?

I was recommended to have a hysterectomy a yr ago I was also told after the ob put me on provera then naproxen after I nearly bled to death from him and fired him to seek emergency medical care immediately...... was a single mom in the middle of a divorce and missed so much work from the ob and court that I nearly lost my job... I couldnt get back to another ob its been a yr... Now I have this intermittent bleeding of red then brown.... I was also told I my uterus bladder and rectum are sitting on my pelvic floor... I just want to know what the chances of cancer after a yr with a fibroid would b... He had also made the comment of lever 3 b4 cancer... now I am worried I do have another appt with a OB outside my network....

When it is polypoid or sub mucous fibroid intermenstural bleeding occurs.If the polypus is large the bleeding is profuse and almost continuous. If it is infected the discharge may be with pus and with offensive smell. Red is fresh bleeding and the brown is late bleeding. Since you have already being diagnosed as having fibroid you need not worry, other wise we have to think of possibility of co-incident uterine cancer. Better to have a checkup again.

talk to your dr or go to webmd.com
The spotting probably would be from the fibroid. as for the chances of cancer developing in a fibroid: 0.5% of all fibroids may turn malignant. It is rare in women under 40 years. It is more likely to occur in postmenopausal women - the symptoms being a sudden growth in the size of the fibroid, pain and post-menopausal bleeding. Didnt understand what u said about the comment he made- "lever 3 b4 cancer"??? But if you are not satisfied with ur current doc, u could always seek a second opinion. Since you have had an episode of severe bleeding earlier, it goes without saying that it would be best to be safe than sorry. Get the fibroid treated properly- whether with the medications or a surgery like myomectomy/hysterectomy- that only ur doc can tell you.
