Do I probably have uterine cancer with thickening of the uterine wall?

Diagnosis of Uterine Cancer:- An annual Pap test and pelvic examination beginning as soon as young woman becomes sexually active, or between the age 17-20 years, are the most important diagnostic steps for early detection of uterine cancer. The Pap smear can pick up cervical dyplasia and the conventional physican may then perform a colposcopy and biopsy of the cervix to give a better understanding of the abnormalities. If only a small area of the cervix is affected, the recommendation may be made for more frequent Pap tests (about every three to six months) to monitor for changes in the cells of the cervix. Additional diagnostic tests for uterine cancer may include laparoscopy, laparotomy, or vaginosonography. In 2002, a Food and Drug Administration (FDA) advisory panel suggested adding a screening test for HPV in addition to Pap smears since HPV is such a high risk factor for cervical cancer. The screening test could help separate women at high risk for more frequent screening than women not at high risk.
Please consult your physician if you have any doubts.

go see a gynocologist

why do you think do you have uterine cancer? have you done a pap smear? or has your doc told you so? or is it just a feeling? anyway you should see your OB-GYN ASAP. it it is cancer there's treatment, it not, well, good for you.

just so you know, the most common cause of a thick uterine wall is endometrial hyperplasia, a very common and benign condition, it's usually just treated with birth control pills.

But anyway, VISIT YOUR DOCTOR!!! And good luck

No reason to suspect cancer. Thickening of wall could be just due to excess estrogen. Use natural progesterone cream made from mexican yam estract or ayurvedic remedies mentioned on

it could be just hypertrophy but it can be pre-cancerous, so you have to get pelvic biopsy...

Go see your OB/GYN. That's the best way to get the rite answer.
