Can Cyst And Uterine Line Thickening Get Converted Into Endometrium Hyperplasia And Cancer?

Hi I'm a 27 200 pd female with diabetes and when I went to get an ultrasound with my obgyn she found I had a thick uterine lining of 16 mm and a cyst of 2 mm .. I have been spotting in between periods and irregular periods .. I read about endometrium hyperplasia and read it can be cancer too .. Should I be concerned?

Hi, yes endometrial hyperplasia can be one of the signs of endometrial cancer. But since you are in ur twenties, and having irreular periods, get your pregnancy scan done and if need be there, get dilatation and curettage done to check for histopathology.
