Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

The biopsy report will tell whether there is any evidence of hyperplasia or cancer in the endometrial biopsy. Postmenopausal bleeding is suspicious and needs to be investigated.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
