Can endometrial thickness resolve on its own?

I am post-menopause and experienced bleeding. The first ultrasound showed a thickened endometrium and the second ultrasound, six weeks later, showed a normal endometrial lining. Can this just resolve itself and is anything further needed?

Re: Can endometrial thickness resolve on its own?

The uterus is lined with a special towel called the endometrium. The endometrium is a dynamic towel that undergoes a series of differences like proliferation, stashing and slipping during the menstrual cycle in a woman’s reproductive times. The abnormal thickening of this filling is called Endometrial Hyperplasia. Unusual uterine bleeding is the major cause of this medical condition and it's substantially seen in postmenopausal women. The four types of Endometrial Hyperplasia are Simple Endometrial Hyperplasia, Complex Endometrial Hyperplasia, Simple Atypical Endometrial Hyperplasia, and Complex Atypical Endometrial Hyperplasia grounded on the quantum of abnormal cells and cell changes. Simple Hyperplasia can go down on its own or with hormonal treatment.

Endometrial Hyperplasia is caused by either too important estrogen or not enough progesterone. During a menstrual cycle, estrogen makes the cells grow, while progesterone signals the shedding of the cells. When there's a hormonal imbalance the cells produced can be too numerous or abnormal. Piecemeal from inordinate bleeding the other symptoms of Endometrial Hyperplasia can include shorter menstrual cycles ( lower than 21 days), heavy and long bleeding during the menstrual cycle, menstrual bleeding between menstrual ages, not having a period (pre-menopause) and post-menopause uterine bleeding.
