Hello ma'am and welcome.

The thickened lining of the endometrium could be due to various reasons, out of which menopause could be one of them.

But there do exist medical conditions (eg. Endometriosis, endometrial hyperplasia, etc.) that could also be the cause for this, and which you are more predisposed to at your age. For this reason, further investigation will be mandatory.

Hope this helps.

Besy wishes.
