'''Simple endometrial hyperplasia''', abbreviated '''SEH''', is an uncommon pre-malignant change of the [[endometrium]]. Like [[complex endometrial hyperplasia]], it is subdivided into ''with atypia'' and ''without atypia''. | '''Simple endometrial hyperplasia''', abbreviated '''SEH''', is an uncommon pre-malignant change of the [[endometrium]].
