Brief Answer:
As below

Detailed Answer:
Hormonal imbalance maybe related to age, stress, late nights, smoking, drinking, erratic eating habits, exercise, weight changes, medications, anxiety etc.
There are umpteen causes, and it is not a very major thing.
It can be corrected with temporary cyclical hormonal therapy.
You can take cyclical progesterone alone, as that will correct the hormonal imbalance, and not interfere with your efforts to conceive either.
Yes, untreated, a thickened endometrium may interfere with a pregnancy and implantation.
