I had a pelvic ultrasound and was found to be abnormal, it measured 23mm thick made appt with obgyn. I'm worried about cancer as my sister had it before. I am 53 years of age and have heavy bleeding all the time. Should I have much to worry about?
View 3 RepliesI've been having bleeding in between periods since July but also had it a couple of years ago for about 6 months. I had smear tests etc back In 2011 all was ok and I was told I Had an erosion too. I also had a pelvic Scan and the uterus lining was 15mm.
But I was told all was ok. Bleeding Stopped but then it started about 5 Months ago it's light and usually starts a few days after my period has Finished and lasts a few days.
I went to the doctors a couple Of weeks ago the doctor looked at my Cervix and she said that was clear then she booked me in for another pelvic Scan I had that 2 weeks ago and the Uterus lining was 19mm I've got to See a gynae tomorrow and I've been Told I'll probably have to have a hysteroscopy or d&c.
I'am 35 I have 9 children 7 normal. Births and 2 by c-section. I have been so worried and keep going Online and that's gets me even more Worried.
I did hysteroscopy(camera) test,the doctor said sure uterus is thick and the fibroids are not in the cavity which he says its better and that its not cancer,
Am yet to do MRI on mid-march so they can decide which treatment is best for me (operation or medication) the polyp is not removed yet,.
Have anyone ever heard if there's possible treatment to heal thickening of uterus?i have try checking internet but can't find any.
Any help is appreciated as i feel its taking long till i do MRI,i wish to have a clue to move on.
I am 5 weeks pregnant and I went to the hospital last night and had a transvaginal ultrasound performed. The doctor could see the thickening of the uterus but could not yet see anything inside of the uterus, even the gestational sac. My HCG level was 1050. Is it normal to not be able to see anything yet?

Does anyone know if a thick endometrial wall can thin out even if you don't get any bleeding? Like a mentioned in a past post, my endometrium thickness is 15mm, it's been almost a month since it was last seen on the US. Is it possible it could have shrunk?
View 3 RepliesI am 61 yrs. old and have had a prolapsed uterus for two yrs. now. I had to put off getting anything done with it because of serious back problems that turned into four huge surgeries(sagittal imbalance) I was bent over at a 45 degree angle for two yrs. anyway, all this time my uterus kept getting worse and now I am in recovery from my fourth back surgery and I noticed blood in my underwear. I think it's coming from the uterus, that is now protruding almost all the way out. I have to push it back inside . I so have an appt. with a urogynecologist Oct.14th. But until then just wondering if anyone had any insight on this. Of Course I am through menopause. I haven't seen any blood for about a week now. But I have a bad discharge(yellowish color). That's been going on for around three weeks, I have had several UTI's in the past six mo. I just know that my cousin had uterus cancer and her first symptoms was one little drop of blood. So I am a little scared about the blood. (Or spotting).
View 4 RepliesSince last 01 year, I am suffering from acute pain around the vagina. MRI explained that Fibroid over uterus, sigmoid colon and uterus are cohesive with each other. Doctors have different opinion. Help me to diagnose the problem and find out the actual reason of pain.
View 1 RepliesA little description, I am a fit 18 yo male. I have never had sex, up until very recently, and I have had these spots before being sexually active.
To me it feels like a wart, although I've never had one I don't believe this to be any type of ingrown hair from shaving. I am very worried, I do not want to give my girlfriend any STD's and I will be getting tested this week, however I'd just like to know asap if there's much to worry about. So, what is this red dot?
on Thursday it will be weigh in number 7 - i have been doing weekly just to i shift the first 2 stone. I have lost 17 lbs so far and around 7 inches from my stomach. but i've hit a brick wall.
headaches all the time, even had some oil over the weekend with no change in what i'm eating. everything is under the fat guidelines. i've had no alcohol since the end of may. trying to stay motivated but its sooooo hard.

Just completed my 1st month on xenical! the 1st couple of weeks were great i lost 6lbs straight away but the last 2 weeks i've only managed 2 more lbs and finding it hard to push past 8lbs!
View 3 RepliesI have had problems with severe pain on eating and drinking for the past 7 months and have had treatment for gastritis and 2 weeks ago I had my gallbladder removed. After the operation I developed serious acid reflux which progressively got worse and alongside the difficulties eating and drinking landed me in hospital a week ago. Today I had a ct scan which revealed a thickening of the lower end of my oesophagus. I am in pain now day and night and pain killers not that effective. Pain radiates through from front to back between shoulder blades and keeps me awake at night. I now need an endoscopy to determine what the thickening is and I am really worried that it is something sinister. CT scan sword everything else to be normal. I'm on 80mg Omeprazole a day in two doses and 600 mg of Ranitidine and I feel terrible with the side effects. The acid reflux settled to some extent in about 3 days but the pain is no better and I'm losing weight because I can't eat. As I'm in hospital the endoscopy will probably take place over the next couple of days but I'm worried sick as to what they will find. Does anyone know what thickening of the oesophagus means in association with my other symptoms.

View 1 RepliesI started seeing a guy 6 months ago, he's now my boyfriend but he did give me chlamydia in the beginning, we got rid of it 3 months later. I had the occasional abdominal pains and thought it was chlamydia but they continued after the sti was gone. about a month ago we went to have sex and it hurt as soon as he went to insert his penis. it didn't last long but as he got deeper it felt like he hit a wall or the back of my vagina. I've googled a lot and originally thought it was vaginismus so I started doing kegel exercise and inserting smaller things and getting bigger. it no longer hurts at the start, it only did a couple times but it still feels like I'm hitting a wall about 3 inches in.
View 2 RepliesLast week.. I slipped and hit my head against a concrete wall. Just layer there for a few minutes, then when I got up I started puking. I didn't think much of it. Went to school and practice for two days and was getting really light headed and haven't done physical activity since.I have been dizzy and lightheaded and everything is kind of foggy. I don't have any swelling or bruising on my head and don't have any headaches. Not sure if I have a concussion or something worse? Starting to worry if I should go to urgent care now or just schedule an appointment?
View 1 RepliesAfter my mistake (HIV scare) I have all these symptoms heart wall pain, chest wall pain, radiating pain to the whole body, and headache, and cough and sputum. X-ray 6 times in 6 months and doctors can not see what is wrong with me. Do I have a virus going inside my body? A viral infection?
View 2 RepliesThree weeks ago, to my great surprise, I started to bleed after one year. The 2-3 weeks preceding this, my breasts were so sore, I was bloated and I has the typical "stringy" discharge that I used to get before my period. I was really not expecting another period but the bleeding was heavy and lasted for just over a week.
I saw my doctor a few days ago and she that she is obliged to send me for an ultrasound and possible biopsy if the lining looks thick. She said she is not worried but I am freaking out.
Can anyone share a similar experience? I read on one website that it is actually possible to ovulate and have a period after you stop menstruating for a year. I have not had any spotting - just this one "period". Of course, everything I have read says how abnormal it is to bleed after menopause and now I'm scared that there is something serious going on. My ultrasound is booked for two days from now.
I'm 42 and recently had blood work to check my hormones. My GYN said my labs suggested post menopause. I have yet to stop having a monthly. My periods are starting to range from 30-45 days but I've yet to skip a month. My husband and I were considering trying one last time to have another baby. Very confused
View 2 RepliesWhen I went in for my appointment a couple weeks ago my doctor was trying to listen to my baby's heartbeat on the doppler and he couldn't find it. So he felt my uterus and told me that it was tilted backwards. He then sent me for an ultrasound and the baby was alright and they were able to hear the heartbeat. The doctor told me that my uterus wouldn't cause any problems and would not harm the baby, but I'm still kinda worried about it. Does anyone have this and is farther along having a normal pregnancy? Just wondering because I am only 10 weeks.
