I had a D&C and hysteroscopy 3 years ago due to endometrial lining growth, which resulted in Asherman Syndrome. I haven't had periods for 3 years and no children. My current gynecologist diagnosed a completely closed cervix and found that the endometrial lining has grown again. I completed a prometrium course but still no period. Considering a hysterectomy, but my current gynecologist won't do another D&C due to previous damage. I'm 45 years old, had bleeding for 3 months, pain from the left side, cysts on both ovaries, and a fibroid that has doubled in size. I also have a history of high blood pressure and a recent breast biopsy showing hyperplasia with another lump found. What are your thoughts on my situation and treatment options?

I have been bleeding after sex and have had a normal PAP smear, but I am still bleeding. Three years ago, I had an abortion. What could be causing the bleeding, and what tests should I undergo? Additionally, since the abortion, I have been trying to conceive but have not been successful. Should I go for a fertility test?

I am a 37-year-old female experiencing lower abdominal pain on the right side with occasional nausea, which occurs 10 to 15 days before my period. The pain includes a sharp tearing sensation, burning or stinging pain, and flank pain in the back, all on the right side. I am on birth control pills (Necon 10/11 6x28) and have early perimenopause symptoms. I have no fever, urinary problems, or unusual vaginal discharge. Should I see a doctor, and if so, which type of doctor should I consult?
