Welcome to Health care magic.

1.The scan does not say any where that suggest cancer.
2.Endometrial thickness of 13.5 mm is not a major issue, proliferative phase ( just before period it can reach to that size.
3.Probably you have missed a part of the report, so aim not able to find the cause of BIOPSY.
4.BIOPSY is recommended bulky uterus with irregular and thickened endometrium and poorly differentiated endmeyrial and myometrial dedifferentiation. And other possible cause could be endometrial growth suspicion. finally uterine lesions.
5.The weight seems over weight needs to reduce, and check if there is some hormonal cause increasing the weight. Mostly seen in PCOD - polycystic ovarian disease.
6.Dont worry report nowhere said about the possible cause of cancer. Good luck.

Hope it helps you. Wish you a good health.
