The endometrium is the inner lining of the uterus. Thickness varies due to hormones, menstrual cycle, conception, menopause & cancer.
About 3mm thickness before sloughing off.
too thick
Endometrial thickness usually varies somewhat, depending upon the point in a woman's menstrual cycle. Thickness is influenced by hormones, age and lifestyle, as well as genetics, and only a physician who is familiar with you and your personal health and history can appropriately diagnose if a thickness of 4.8mm is currently appropriate for you. Depending upon many factors, 4.8mm may be entirely appropriate. Please seek the help of a caring and knowledgeable specialist who is open to answering your questions.
Because of one factor ie,high vascularity and endometrial thickness
Endometrial thickness can vary depending on factors such as the stage of the menstrual cycle. In general, a thickness of 7.5 mm may be considered normal during certain phases of the cycle, particularly during the proliferative phase. However, it is always best to consult with a healthcare provider who can evaluate your specific situation and provide the most accurate interpretation.

Clinical correlation is recommended when there is mildly prominent endometrial thickness because it could be indicative of various conditions such as hormonal imbalance, endometrial hyperplasia, or rarely, endometrial cancer.

Starting the pill does not usually make your periods heavier. In fact, most women will find that their periods will become significantly lighter. This is due to the action of the pill in the body. The pill works by preventing ovulation (no egg released), increasing the thickness of cervical mucus (makes it harder for sperm to travel), and decreasing the thickness of the endometrial lining (harder for an embryo to implant). Since the endometrial lining is thinner this generally means lighter periods.
Pregnancy can cause a distended endometrial cavity.
