hi
i'm 38.
just got my ultrasound results that i have
a 'slightly bulky uterus', anteverted
(which is normal),volume of the body 50cc,
dimensions 5cmx4cmx5.5cm. i am also
subseptate (9mm). it also mentions age
related changes in the myometrium but i am
not sure of this is normal or not.
endometrium is 12.2mm which is normal. the
fundal contour is preserved. the kidneys,
ovaries are fine (with multiple
follicles). there are no intracavity mass
or fluid and everything else is fine....
what does this 'slight bulkiness' mean?
are the dimensions ok?
what age related changes in my myometrium
would be expected at my age?
do i need further investigations?
will this severely affect my fertility?
i cannot access my doctor right now since
i am on an overseas holiday.
my periods are always regular and
normal...
many thanks!!!
monica

I think you'd need to ask your doctor
these questions :/ Why do people not do
this? Only s/he can tell you if "slightly
bulky" is okay or what it means and answer
all of your other questions.

You can ask the Radiologist too. If they
diagnosed you with a bulky uterus it
stands to reason they know what that
means.

comment. it's nothing urgent apparently
(otherwise they would be calling me), but
i am worried. will see any dr soon. i
wish i knew right now what this all
means!

Sorry I don't know much!! That's so weird
he can't tell you. Sometimes hospitals
make no sense!
