Detailed Answer:
Hi Mam,

Your query lacks crucial details. Why did your sister go for check up? How were her periods? What is her age? Without these it is tough to say anything about the problem.

Normal endometrium thickness is 9-13mm,its slightly high in your case.

I suggest you to come back to me with all the details.

Post your further queries if any,

Thankyou
