Thickening of the uterus lining

Hi ladies, I had a transvaginal ultrasound due to an enlarged ovary. My ovaries appear to be fine at least the right one does the left one could not be seen. The doctor said that the lining of my uterus has thickened, probably due to tamoxifen and needs to be checked again in 6 months. What does this mean and what are the dangers and/or affects of this. Would appreciate any input.
