Hi,
Thanks for writing in.
The uterus is normal in size. The inner cavity of the uterus shows the presence of a possible fluid area measuring 3.7 x 2.1 mm. This is very small and can relate to fluid collection due to an infection or some pathological changes. You must get your symptoms reviewed by your doctor and if necessary further investigations may be needed.
