Lining of the uterus thickened on ultrasound........period 4 weeks late

I have a quick question. I am now 4 week late on my period and I went in for an ultrasound on today and the doctor said that my uterus lining was thick. I know that usually happen at around two weeks of pregnancy. I haven't seen a period in 8 total weeks now. He also only spent about 20 seconds on the entire ultrasound exam too, so I'm thinking he might have overlooked alot of stuff. Has anyone ever experienced anything like this. Please share your input with me. I'd really appreciate it.

I too have the same problem. It started back in october of 08. The bleeding went on for 3 months, non- stop. When I went to go see my first gyn, they said the lining of my uterus was thick. The he started to ask me if i was pregnant or ever been? or have i smoked, drink, or drank coffee. I told him no. My problem have been going on for about 2 1/2 years now. My doctor kept prescribing me pills. I had to get a depo shot. I went into the hospital twice back to back. I have to take 3 iron tablets daily to keep my iron up. I was on birth control, but i was told if you take to many you could get blood clots. so i stopped. my bleeding was on and off. Sometimes it would be off for 4 months close and then come back on. The last time i bled was back in 2010 at the end of august. I'm am only 21yrs, sometimes i get afraid if i won't be able to have children.  I didn't let my problem keep me from having a good life.  my doctor is trying to prevent from surgery, but i'm looking at the only logical thing is to do a dnc! Just to see if that works. Oh and ladies he said fibroids can also play apart in the vaginal bleeding. So ladies please fined a good doctor who can help you and tell you want you need to know . I really want to make out with my Boyfriend, but because if this problem, it's becoming very difficult. SO every now and then i just pray to god that he just keep me and protect me. I pray for all these women on here whom are suffering the same thing i am. May God be with you all and I pray their is a solution to our problems.
