I m age 57, and have had heavy periods in the past. I was on Zoladex and Luperon for 6 doses, starting September 2013. My period has stopped and I ve recently had a hysteroscopy, which was negative for cancer cells. However, my uterus is thick, and my doctor has recommended additional weight loss to reduce estrogen level. The doctor said I m high risk for uterine cancer. A hysterectomy is recommended, if weight loss doesn t decrease estrogen. I ve never given birth, and confused about thick uterine lining.
