Hi welcome HCM,
I understand your concern.
your uterus is large in size with there is endo myometrial junction indistinction and other associated findings suggestive of adenomyosis of uterus.
it is not cancerous condition so nothing to worried about.
Treatment depends on severity of symptoms and the need to preserve fertility.
If your family is complete you can go for hysterectomy means removal of uterus by surgery
If not then some harmonal suppresion drugs (e.g. GnRH agonist) is sufficient.
Please reply with thanks
