How is endometrial hyperplasia generally treated?

Patient's question:

Patient: Female, 35 years old, has been suffering from endometrial hyperplasia for a period of time. I would like to ask how is endometrial hyperplasia generally treated?

Doctor's answer:

Normal endometrial thickness, if less than 10 millimeters, may have the possibility of menstruation. If it is below 10 millimeters, it is generally considered that there may be a possibility of endometrial hyperplasia, which is related to long-term estrogen exposure in the body and relatively insufficient progesterone. Generally, endometrial hyperplasia may lead to symptoms such as amenorrhea or prolonged menstruation. In such cases, it is usually necessary to perform a uterine curettage and undergo a pathological examination. There are many treatments for endometrial hyperplasia, but since the symptoms of patients differ, the treatment methods used also vary. Therefore, it is necessary for patients to be diagnosed as soon as possible so that they can be treated accordingly.
