Adenomyosis: Adenomyosis is basically an invasion of the uterine muscle with cells from the lining. It is highly improbable that a "D&C pathology" would be "normal", and cellular components of adenomyosis would be different from that of the lining cells. A "light period" after a D&C can occur, over the time cited, and should stop in a week or so.

It is not worrysome: Adenomyosis is a benign, relatively harmless condition. You do not have Cancer in your uterus because this cancer begins in the inner lining of the uterus called Endometrium which has been checked with the biopsy already and the biopsy is normal. So you can relax and follow it up with your gynecologist in case you have any symptoms due to Adenomyosis.

Hi there, so if your uterine lining is thick, it doesn't really mean, you have cancer, right? Could be just hiperplasia? I took prometrium for 10 days and the 11th was the first day of my period, but today, the 24th, after I thought it stopped on the 17th
