A member asked:

Im 50. postmenopausal. ultrasound showed thickened at 16mm. midly heterogeneous. biopsy said disordered proliferative endometrium. scheduled a d and c with hysteroscopy in a month. what do u think?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

"True menopause" involves cessation of ovarian estrogen production, and endometrium "thickened to 16mm" is a result of heightened ovarian estrogen, without ovulation, which is generally a benign condition, but a biopsy is certainly indicated. A "D&C/hysterroscopy" will produce a larger sample of endometrium, but will usually confirm a benign condition. Get a second opinion prior to surgery.
