[|Human|] Please help as I m really scared. History of endo. Thought I was peri menopausal as over past year periods changing. Getting closer together also lasting longer. Went to Gp as bleed for 25 days and he put me on norethisterone with no break pending investigation. Went for scan and have urgently been referred to gyne oncology as uterus lining 44 mm thick . Does it definitely mean I have cancer or can there be another explanation. I am 46 and don t want to die this early
[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. In my opinion you should not worry much about malignancy. As menopausal women tend to have thicker endometrium. After menopause hormonal changes occur specially estrogen decreases, so the effects of estrogen are also lost. Estrogen causes secretory endometrium and absence causes Chat Doctor. So mostly 44 mm thickness is due to loss of estrogen effect and not malignancy.
