What percentage of endometrial thickness is cancer?

My doctor mentioned my endometrial lining was a bit thick after my last ultrasound. She said it usually isn't serious, but I'm still a bit concerned. What percentage of the time does endometrial thickness actually turn out to be cancer?

I had a scare with endometrial thickness a few years ago. My gynaecologist explained that while it needs investigation, the vast majority of cases are not cancer, but rather benign conditions like hyperplasia or polyps. The key is to get a biopsy done to confirm. Don't postpone it, clarity is important.

While I don't know the exact medical percentages for endometrial thickness and cancer, I know from my diabetes management that early detection and proper lifestyle are crucial. Any abnormal findings must be discussed with your doctor immediately. Health is wealth, look after it properly.

This sounds like a really worrying question to ask, so I hope you're okay. Endometrial thickness can be a sign of many things, not just cancer. It's why they usually do biopsies or further tests to check. So, don't jump to conclusions, but definitely follow up with your doctor quickly.

Uff, another health thing to worry about! Endometrial thickness? Sounds complicated. My wife's friend had something similar, and it turned out to be nothing serious, just needed some medication. So, don't google too much and stress yourself out, just go see the doc.

For some things, natural remedies work, but with endometrial thickness, you need to be very careful. This is a medical issue that demands a doctor's attention. While not all cases are cancer, it's absolutely crucial to get a proper medical diagnosis and not rely on anything else.
