Hi, I don't know the answer to this one, but I am at work at the moment (in a hospital!) and I could ask one of the nurses or med secs if you wanted me to find out.

However, I would suggest you maybe telephone your consultant's secretary and ask her - she will probably be able to answer your questions straight away but if not I'm sure she could find out and put your mind at rest.

Don't be afraid to ring the secretary - they shouldn't put stuff in letters without explanation if they don't want patients ringing up and asking what it means!

Endometrial hyperplasia is a thickening of the lining of the womb, caused by overgrowth of the cells that line the womb. It is not cancer

Hope this helps.x
