This endometrial thickness has to be further investigated.

This not necessarily malignant, but could be "endometrial hyperplasia". This condition occurs due to excess proliferation of the endometrial glands under the effect of estrogen.

You should consult your gynecologist for further assessment of the cause and nature of this abnormally thickened endometrium.

Best regards.
