9 mm is ok. Ask your doc. All that is needed is just to keep a watch, nothing more. Honestly, most doctors don’t look for endometrial thickness unless there is bleeding. And those who do look for it regularly, will keep cut off at 1 cm. It’s not that thickness just goes on increasing. Maybe next time she does sonography, it might have come down. As long as she has no bleeding, one need not worry about 9 mm endometrial thickness

Consult a Gynecologist as well and let him/her know you are on Tamoxifen.

Seek opinion from your Oncologist as well.
