The female endometrium shows periodic thickening or thinning starting from puberty, and there is no fixed thickness for the endometrium. But women will experience menopause at a certain age. After menopause, the endometrium no longer shows periodic thickening, and the thickness of the endometrium is relatively stable. So, how much is the normal thickness of the double layered endometrium?
If it is a premenopausal woman, the thickness of the endometrium will show periodic changes. After menstruation, the thickness of the endometrium is the thinnest. Generally, the thickness of the endometrium can reach 1-3 millimeters. Over time, the endometrium will gradually become thicker. Before the next menstruation, the thickness of the endometrium can reach one or two centimeters, which is the thickest period. Of course, the thickness of the endometrium also varies from person to person, some may be thicker, some may be thinner, and the thickness varies greatly among individuals.
After menopause, the endometrium of women no longer undergoes periodic changes. At this time, the endometrium of women will present a relatively stable state. Generally, the thickness of the endometrium will remain at around 4 millimeters. If the endometrium thickens too much, there may be a disease, and it is necessary to immediately go to the hospital for examination to determine what is going on and take active measures.
