I am 58 and post menopausal. I recently had a CT scan as part of a cancer screening and the results showed my uterine lining had thickened to "that of a 20 yr old" (according to the onocologist). I made an appt with my GYN and he conducted an endometrial biopsy. The results came back and I got a message from him that said it showed "some abnormalities that may be pre-malignant. We should do a complete removal of the lining of the uterus with a hysteroscopy and D&C. " The way I interept this is that there is NO cancer but conditions exist that make it more likely to develop. I view D&C as a treatment as opposed to a diganostic tool and no other biopsys or tests will be done during the procedure. Am I correct in my view? Thanks for you help!
