Can Enlarged Uterus Cause Abdominal Pain?
Hi I have had a scan done about 2 weeks ago. The findings showed that the Uterus ils enlarged, bulky and heterogeneous. Within the myometrium, there are a number of areas of altered echogenicity, consistent wth fibroids. Two in the anterior myometrium measure 2.4 x 2 cm and the other 2 x 1.8cm. They are adjacent tot he endometrium but not extending into the cavity. There are a number of smaller fibroids also present.
I am waiting to see a gyno. In the meantime I am experiencing a lot of pain in my lower abdomen. I cannot seem to tolerate long drives as this seems to agravate this pain even more.

Hi.
The multiple fibroids in the uterus as described on a CT scan definitely can cause the pain in abdomen. The other caused coulf have been diagnosed on it.
The most proper treatment for such fibroids is hysterectomy.
