A member asked:
58yrs, 5 yrs post menopausal, had bleeding over 2 week period. ultrasound shows uterine lining at 1.4. test returned as no cancer. is d&c advised?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: the thick lining may need a more complete sampling, via D&C. Visualization with hysterscope can be further helpful at ruling out more serious issues.

A member asked:
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
