Can I Have A Doctor Explain My Pelvic Scan Reports?
Hi, I'm 34. Married with two kids. Started having heavy periods with clots since de birth of my second child 4year ago. Went 4 a pelvic scan which report says, I have a bulky uterus measuring 7.5m with regular outlines, and multiple fibriod seedlings seen in the myometrium measuring 1.47* 1.09cm. Pls kindly advice
It is suggestive of uterine fibroids. These are non-cancerous growths that appear during childbearing years.
Although usually not dangerous, they can cause discomfort and prolonged heavy periods may lead to anemia. I advise you to consult your gynecologist for further evaluation which may include other tests such as CBC, thyroid function tests and hysteroscopy followed by its appropriate treatment.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Mohammed Taher Ali, General & Family Physician
