Does the endometrium thicken after menopause?

Patient's question:

I have an itchy lower body, and my underwear is always yellow. What's going on? Does the endometrium thicken after menopause?

Doctor's answer:

Hello, if the endometrium is thicker than normal, it may lead to excessive menstrual flow or prolonged periods, which can cause anemia. Currently, the main treatment is surgical (D&C), as medication is ineffective. Under current medical conditions, it is certainly possible to treat it, but whether it will leave sequelae is uncertain, because conditions like sepsis and cerebral edema can cause significant damage to brain cells. Possible sequelae include intellectual decline and epilepsy. However, the current priority is to do everything possible to treat the condition and minimize the damage. Wishing you a speedy recovery.
