I had a second endometrial of 11.2 mm I also bled for two months, but then it quit , I did go in for a biopsy and then also a DNC and they removed a whole bunch of polyps, luckily for me, it did come back benign but the doctor did tell me if they come back again. I might not be that lucky I just need to keep up and keep checking on it but I haven’t did it the last two years. , I do plan to make an appointment for check up. Praying for all the ladies that are going through the same thing I know it’s scary. I had this done when I was 58 years old that’s July I will turn 60 ❤🙏🏽
I have exactly the same symptoms as yours, but I am only 30 years old. It started when I was 28. 😢
Did the polyp ever come back? Currently I had a day of spotting, the scan showed a 8mm polyp, scheduled for d&c..😢
never ever came across such a video on indications, diagnostic & treatment modalities, and prognosis of a thickened endometrium. thanks Dr Rso 🙏
Thank you very much for taking time and trouble to explain about endometrial cancer .I was diagnosed with it this year.Nothing had prepared me for when my consultant mention cancer.i felt like I was hi by a ton of bricks from no where.The consultant suggested a total hysterectomy.
I am so happy to say I had my procedure done 2 weeks ago. Everything went smoothly and I am recovering smoothly.
Cancer has changed me considerably. I no longer complain about little stupid things. I would you guys to know your body and get regular check ups.
There is hope at the end if the tunnel.
Thank you for your time and also a big thank you to our Almighty Lord for protecting us. Life is beautiful and let's make the most of our time.❤😂🎉
I have a D&C scheduled for in the morning. The lining of my Uterus is 11m. Thank God that everything is going great with you. May God bless you
I am 41 my endometrial thickness in transvaginal scan was 24mm had heavy periods affecting my Hemoglobin levels am superscared waiting for biopsy results..fingers crossed
My uterine pre cancerous cells returned to normal after going on an omad diet and cutting out all processed food. I get tested every 6 months with a biopsy to survey.
It’s been over a year and all is still well but there is always the worry. I don’t want to do a hysterectomy so I’ll keep this up and soon hope to be biopsied only once a year.
I watched Chris beat cancer and followed much of his advice.
Praying for you!

Dear Dr. I really appreciate your wisdom on this subject. I am 65yrs and was recently diagnóse with endometrial hyperplesia the thickness is 1.28cm with cystic space, no cancer, should I be thinking about total hystorectomy??
Dr Rao you have shared the Skysize information. Thanks so much for it.
Sincere Thanks dear Doctor for the explanation 💐🙏💐 ! Sr Citizen .
Thank you for sharing your knowledge, it was clear, concise, non jargon words used and useful. I a 50 years old post menopausal woman and had spotting. My doctor immediately arranged a Paps smear, an ultrasound scan pelvis and transvaginal scan where it was found I have 4 fibroids, ovarian cyst and a 6mm endometrium. After being referred to a gynaecologist, she asked questions and did a pelvic exam and I had to do a blood test for cancer screening. I am scheduled hysteroscopy, D&C with endometrial biopsy, Transvaginal scan (again) and a IUD implant at the hospital in 3 weeks. Wish me luck 😀!
How did it go? Hope all is well
All the best. Everything will go well. Wish you speedy recovery and the bestest health.
Thank you for your kind words. I am in the clear - no ovarian cancer, the Paps smear for cervical cancer is negative and endometrium biopsy came back as negative as well. The Merina IUD implant worked and my endometrium is now back into normal range, under 5mm. The 4 fibroids are less than 4 cm and causes me no issues at all. The ovarian cyst is not cancerous and is not causing me any issues or pain either.
@@elizagaskell7957 glad to see everything is good, hopefully it’s all up from here on out and you have no issues! Well wishes, good luck sending love and hugs

Dr. Roa, thank you for the very clear and concise information. I’m 58 & postmenopausal. I’ve had 4 fibroids for over 10 years & have yearly pelvic ultrasounds done. 8 years ago I had a polyp in the uterus that was removed and was found to be benign. At my last pelvic ultrasound the doctor found that the lining went from 4mm to 6mm . I’m scheduled to have a hysteroscopy in May. Your thoughts?
Did you doctor asked for any progesterone therapy ????
I’m 12.5 and the doctor talked about D&C bc I have bleeding.
during period hysteroscopy polyp removal surgery ho sakti hai

Hello Doctor
Hope u are doing well..
I have one query i had two kids and history of endomteriosi but recently doctor told i have septate uterus but in regular ultrasound they always said uterus is normal in shape antervated in shape
I think my ultrasound us wrong or i had septate uterus after child birth
I’m in America. I just had an ultrasound done today. I’m 65, and they said my uterus was “thickened” at 5.2, so they weren’t “too concerned”. But they did a biopsy anyway just to be sure. I should get the results in 5 days. All this can be confusing and scary, but you explained it perfectly and logically. Thank you.
Hey what was the result of the biopsy? Please tell
Result?
Results?
Hope all went well

Thanks. I was 51 and perimenopausal and I had an ultrasound and I had the hyperplasia. I lost a lot of blood
