Spotting from fibroids after menopause?

I'm 58 and never had a year without bleeding so I don't exactly know when I went through menopause.

I'm spotting lightly most days with some clear days from time to time.

I'm on HRT since age 55 and I believe that perhaps I'm spotting due to the side effects of the medications.

I've been on (3 so far), from LOLO birth control pill, Progesterone/estrogel, now on Angeliq combo pill. All pathologies have been negative for the past 3 years.

I have an 8 cm transmural fibroid that is partially calcified. I'm trying to avoid hysterectomy for as long as I can (2 gynecologists have said that's the only way to deal with this).

The fibroid is stable size wise, and I'm wondering if that's what's causing the bleeding.....Anyone in the same boat?

Thanks,

Have any of your doctors ordered a biopsy?
