I'm no doctor, but with your family history a biopsy is more than reasonable.  There are other conditions like adenomyosis that can cause the uterus walls to thicken, so try not to think the worst right off the bat.  Still, it's best to have the biopsy done to make certain what you're dealing with.  Best of luck to you.  :-)
