A member asked:
Abnormally slightly thickened endometrial stripe (18mm) still have periods. 27 years old. could this be cancer? im having trouble conceiving.

No: You are young and unlikely to have endometrial cancer. Unless you have a hereditary cancer condition, you don't need to worry. The thickness isn't extreme. Talk to your Gyn or set up a consult if you like to discuss this further
