Endometrial echogenicity means that the endometrium is not uniformly thick or thin.
If endometrial echogenicity is found before a woman’s menstrual period, she can wait for 2 to 3 days after her menstrual period to have another ultrasound, and if the endometrial echogenicity disappears, the endometrial echogenicity found before her menstrual period is normal endometrial hyperplasia.
If endometrial echogenicity is detected after the menstrual period, it often indicates the presence of inflammation, hyperplasia, polyps, irregular shedding and other lesions of the endometrium.
Endometrial echogenicity on ultrasound is only one test result and should be combined with the patient’s symptoms and other tests to make a definitive diagnosis.
