Hello Reeta and welcome to HCM,
I am Dr Madhuri a Consultant Obstetrician and Gynecologist and will be helping you with your queries.
Knowledge about your menstrual status would be a great help in recommending a treatment plan. Nevertheless an endometrium of 14.3 is thick. So a D and C or hysteroscopy is needed to obtain a biopsy and then check if the endometrium is alright under a microscope.
The commonest cause of thick endometrium is endometrial hyperplasia or excessive over growth of the endometrium. Rare cause is endometrial cancer. Both of these can be diagnosed by a biopsy. So get it done to have a proper diagnosis and then further management can be planned accordingly.
Hope this satisfies your query.
Thanks for using HCM.
Feel free to ask any more questions that you may have.
