Irregular Period. On Birth Control Pills. Done Trans Vaginal Ultrasound. What Does It Denote?
Hi! I'm 42 yr old female, with heavy periods, irregular this month, saw my gyno because I wanted birth control pills hoping that will lessen the flow. She wanted me to get an ultra sound first. Today I got that, then they wanted to do (and did) a trans vaginal ultrasound. My question is, why would they do both? First the ultrasound then the trans vag us?
