Checking thickened womb lining in women after menopause
Part of Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study uses a small camera (hysteroscopy) and tissue sampling (biopsy) to check the womb lining in women who have thickened lining but no symptoms. It aims to understand what a thickened lining means for postmenopausal women and whether any hidden problems exist.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have gone through menopause (no periods for at least 12 months).
- You are 40 years old or older.
- You were found to have a thickened womb lining (endometrium) of 5 mm or more during a scan, with no symptoms.
- You have no vaginal bleeding after menopause.
- You have no known disease of the womb lining, and you are able to have a hysteroscopy (a camera test of the womb).

This study is looking at aging cells in the lining of the uterus in women who have a thin endometrial lining. It aims to understand what causes this problem and how to improve fertility treatment.
This study looks at the inside of the uterus with a small camera (hysteroscopy) and checks tissue samples (biopsy) to find the cause of bleeding after menopause. It may help identify any abnormal changes early.
This trial tests two ways to take a small sample of the uterus lining (endometrium) when it is thin. The results may help women have a more comfortable and effective biopsy.
This study tests a simple, non-invasive method to detect endometrial cancer in women after menopause who have abnormal bleeding. It aims to find cancer early in those at higher risk, such as women with certain genetic conditions or risk factors.
This trial tests a new way to take a small sample of the womb lining (biopsy) using a thin, flexible tube guided by ultrasound. The goal is to see if ultrasound guidance makes the biopsy more accurate and comfortable in people with post-menopausal bleeding.
This study tests two less invasive methods—sampling cells from the lining of the uterus (endometrial cytology) and checking DNA changes in the cervix—to see if they can help detect endometrial cancer or atypical hyperplasia, and to monitor response in people who are preserving their fertility. It aims to find a gentler alternative to traditional biopsy.
