Hello, Thanks for the query.
Interesting case. I find lot many cases with this scenario.
Any post menopausal bleeding unless proved otherwise is endometrial cancer.
USG report also suggest the same.
Please get Hysteroscopic guided biopsy of endometrium for diagnosis which is a gold standard investigation of choice.
hope this helps.
regards,
Dr Nilofer
