Various causes

Hi dear,
I have gone through your question and understand your concerns.
Prominent Endometrium with minimal free fluid in the cavity can be due to various causes like:
1. Endometrial changes after abortion or delivery
2. Endometrial hyperplasia
3. Rarely, endometrial cancer, which is a diagnosis in postmenopausal female.
The cause depends upon the history, symptoms and age of the patient.
Hope you found the answer helpful.

Brief Answer:
Further investigations are required

Detailed Answer:
Hi dear,
I have reviewed the report.
The endometrial thickness is more ( more than 4 mm) which is abnormal in a 69 year old female.
Endometrial biopsy should be done to rule out any carcinoma.
Moreover, a cyst is present in the left ovary.This should be further investigated by Doppler ultrasound and MRI, if required, to rule out any ovarian cancer.
Regards
Dr Deepti Verma
