Is Proliferative Endometrium in Menopause Benign?

As part of our medical training and education, we often learn diagnoses in isolation. For example, we have learned that Proliferative Endometrium on EMB is a non-pathological finding. That result can be left alone without therapy, correct? But what if that is found in the context of a postmenopausal patient. Is it still considered a nonpathological finding? In this episode, we will summarize the current nomenclature for endometrial pathology and why one classification scheme is favored over the other (EIN over WHO). We will also summarize key points form a February 2023 publication (Obstetrics and Gynecology) released under the section, “Clinical Conundrums: Proliferative Endometrium in Menopause, to Treat or Not to Treat?”.
