What Is The Treatment For Cervix Cancer?
I am a 43 year old white female at 201 lbs. I have had precancer in my cervix and now I am experiencing a great deal of pain and grey tissue during my periods with a large amount of clotting. I have had a pap and it was ok. My doctor recommended a pelvic ultrasound. What could it be and would you do the ultrasound.

Hello dear, thanks for your question on HCM.
Since you are having precancerous condition, following are the possible causes for your present symptoms.
1. Cervical cancer
2. Infection.
So you need to get done
1. Biopsy from the cervix
2. Microscopic examination of discharge
3. Ultrasound examination of uterus and ovary.
4. CT scan of pelvis if needed.
All these are needed to rule out cancer and infection.
Ultrasound is very simple test in which images are achieved through sound waves via probe.
It is totally noninvasive test.
So consult gynecologist and discuss all these.
