Patient's question:
Doctor, I have endometrial hyperplasia. Two months ago during a health check-up, it was found that my endometrium was 1.3 cm, which is a few days before my period. It was recommended to me to have a D&C, and I'm a bit scared.Doctor's answer:
Generally, the endometrium does not exceed 1 centimeter. An endometrium of 1.3 centimeters is indeed relatively thick and it is advisable to have an endometrial scraping examination.Most people do not experience significant pain during an endometrial scraping, and it can usually be completed smoothly. There is no need to worry too much. The main purpose of the endometrial scraping is to rule out endometrial cancer, so it is better to have the examination as early as possible.
There are many treatment methods for this condition, but since the patient's condition varies, the treatment approach will also differ. Therefore, it is necessary for patients to seek professional medical advice for a detailed examination as soon as possible in order to receive targeted treatment.
