Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your mothers situation and problem. Endometrial thickness of 1.9 cm can be seen in malignancy. But chances of malignancy are less because she is not having a mass lesion or enlarged inguinal lymph nodes. So possibility of post menopausal thickness is more. But better to rule out cancer and hence dilatation and curette (D&C) is advised in her case. If D&C is negative for malignancy than no need to worry about cancer. Also get done hormone levels to rule out hormonal imbalance as this is the common cause for endometrial thickening. Hope I have solved your query. Wishing good health to your mother. Thanks.
