Retroverted uterus ; this is the orientation entation of the uterus to the upright body axis when standing. A uterus can be placed leaning forward(anteflexed) , upright(normoflexed) or leaning backwards(retroflexed). All these positions are normal. Your uterus us rertoflexed and that is normal. Other features are normal. Ultrabsound uses echo to take pictures. So echo is the picture. The pictures taken were normal however there are some fluid filled sacs with the ovaries that are noted. Generally fluid filled sacs are called cysts . Cysts are generally harmless and do not warrant treatment unless they present with symptoms, however you need to see a pathologist who will perform a ultra sound guided biopsy to tell you if the cysts are harmless. Thank you and welcome.
