A member asked:

My endometrial lining is 19.2 with a possible polyp. they are doing a hysteroscopy on the 11th. what chance is it of being cancer they are looking for?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

They ARE looking: If the radiologist thinks it's a polyp, if it is cancer (odds are it's not, but there's a chance) is has probably not gotten very far. They are of course concerned this is cancer and we need tissue to find out. Let's hope for the best -- you were wise to permit the workup.
