Hi, I think it can be because of the hormones. But better to get it evaluated. Get a pelvic examination done to rule out any cervical pathology or infections. Get a ultrasound done to see the endometrial thickness. If it is more than 4 mm, you may need an endometrial biopsy to rule out any endometrial pathology. Hope it helps.
