Hi Michelle, mine was 10mm and biopsy showed up postmenopausal endometrial atrophy - ie slight thickening due to hormonal activity according to my consultant and absolutely nothing to worry about. It's really hard waiting for results but please don't assume the worst because it's actually very unlikely to be anything sinister. xx
