When this occurs in the uterus, it is called endometrial hyperplasia. This condition may be precancerous, but doctors have no way of predicting whether or not it will be. This procedure is also used to identify the presence and extent of endometriosis. Having located patches of endometriosis, a surgeon can then determine where to make incisions through which to burn or vaporize the patches or cut away scar tissue. Menopause causes a decrease in estrogen production, which may result in or worsen osteoporosis.
Ovaries produce both estrogen and progesterone.
