Endometrial hyperplasia occurs when the uterine lining[endometrium]grows too thick as a result of estrogen stimmulation. women with irregular menstrual cycles who dont ovulate are most apt to have this problem. it must be distinguished from a condition called complex hyperplasia,which can lead to endometrial[uterine]cancer.

simple endometrial hyperplasia isnt serious. it may indicate a hormonal imbalance,which should be corrected.

treatment is fairly simple as long ads a tissue analysis reveals no precancerous cells. taking birth-control pills or progesterone medications for a few months will often correct the problem. if a biopsy indicates the presence of cancerous cells,you may be advised to have a hysyerectomy.

the dilatation and curettage[D&C] in which will scape your uterine lining,will help.
i wish you luck;
