Hi,
The findings in your uterus, along with the history of bleeding, can represent a benign tumor called leiomyoma. When the tumor becomes medically non-manageable, it is surgically removed. I would like to stress it once again, that it is a benign tumor and has no malignant potential (i.e. it does not convert to cancer).
As to the cyst that you mentioned, I cannot give any opinion on this as you did not mention WHERE they found it. Was it in the ovaries or uterus? Was it somewhere inside the abdomen? Please specify.
Kind regards,
