What Does The Myometrium Is Heterogeneous And Appears Diffusely Abnormal In Ultrasound Suggest?
Hello, can you tell me in non- medical lingo how dangerous my health is when my ultrasound report said the myometrium is heterogeneous and appears diffusely abnormal ? Also it said, a few nabothian cysts are seen in the cervix , is that cancerous?

Thanks for your question on HCM.
Normal myometrium is homogeneous in nature and is having normal uniform thickness.
But it becomes heterogeneous and abnormal in
1. Infection
2. Malignancy
And presence of nebothian cysts are just incidental finding. They are benign cyst only.
The worrisome part in your report is heterogeneous with diffuse abnormal endometrium.
Better to consult gynecologist and get done biopsy to confirm the diagnosis.
