Is the endometrial thickness of 16mm serious?

The endometrial thickness reaches 16mm, indicating that the uterine wall is in a very thick state. Generally, under ultrasound, if it exceeds 13mm, it means that the uterine wall is in a relatively thick state. Due to the continuous stimulation of female hormones, only after the menstruation is delayed for a long time, because the hormone is always in a high-quality state, the functional layer of the uterine wall itself will not cause necrosis, so it will not rupture by itself, and the uterine wall will continue to thicken, and this situation of 16mm will appear.

It is recommended that patients go to the hospital to check their own growth hormone to see if there is a problem with the growth hormone itself. If a woman in menopause has a uterine wall that reaches 16mm, the problem is more serious. She must go to the hospital for a curettage to see what the endometrium is like to avoid delaying the disease.

The thickness of the endometrium is 16mm, which cannot be confirmed as cancer, but it does not rule out the possibility of malignancy. It is best to go to the hospital for examination and do a curettage. It is also recommended to go to the hospital for pathological examination to determine whether it is cancer. If it is endometrial cancer, it is best to go to the hospital for surgery. It is also recommended to use effective radiotherapy and chemotherapy under the guidance of a doctor to help improve the condition. If cancer is ruled out, this may be caused by long-term stimulation of estrogen, which is usually caused by endocrine imbalance. It is best to take hormone drugs effectively under the guidance of a doctor, pay attention to rest, and don't stay up late to avoid aggravating the condition. Thick endometrium can easily affect pregnancy. It is best to go to the hospital for curettage. You can also safely take medication for conditioning.

Endometrial thickening simply means that it becomes thicker, which may cause certain problems, but it is not necessarily cancer. So in this case, generally speaking, if you have had sexual intercourse, it is best to scrape out part of the endometrial tissue for testing, that is, send the scraped uterine wall tissue to the laboratory for testing to see its actual characteristics. If it is cancer, it can definitely be detected. But generally speaking, the probability of cancer is still relatively small, so don't worry for the time being. Scrape off a part of the tissue for testing to see the actual situation.
