Hello
Thanks for writing to HCM
You have two uterine fibroids in upper segment, one in anterior wall and another in posterior wall. These are benign tumours.
You didn't mentioned your age and symptoms. It matters a lot in management.
Treatment modalities are both conservative and surgical. It depends upon symptoms and age.So,better you should consult your gynecologist.
If conservative management is opted then regular size monitoring should be done.
Other findings are within normal limit.
