Welcome to health care magic.

1.The endometrial thickness for a post menopausal women with above finding appears normal.
2.The collection in the endometrial cavity like distention - possibly due to the bladder mass indenting on the endometrial canal causing obstructing the out flow.
3.It means there is obstruction.The bladder and uterus fat planes are maintained as its not mentioned of involvement.
4.There is no abnormal vascularity noted with in the uterus - suggest no pathology noted.
5.Suggest to get a MRI pelvis for better anatomical delineation and involvement of adjacent pelvic structures. Good luck.

Hope i have answered your query.
