Should I Be Concerned About My Fibroids And Irregular Periods, Along With Endometrial Thickness And Vascularization?

Good evening, dear doctors, I am writing to you because I am anxious and worried. I am 49 years old and have had very large fibroids for years that have never given me any problems, apart from swelling and the occasional early or very late period. This summer I had a gynecological visit with ultrasound because it had been about three years since I had a check-up due to anxiety problems that prevent me from going for visits and other fears. The visit went well in the sense that it was the same as three years ago but every doctor almost always suggested that I evaluate the option of removing it to eliminate the problem. This summer my period was a bit irregular, it came a little early, then spotting, then it ended as usual. In October I only had spotting for two weeks and that was it, in November spotting and then a very heavy period that ended a few days ago, still with very light spotting. In the grip of anxiety, I went to the gynecological clinic in my city, and he did a manual examination without an ultrasound, telling me that they are fibroids and to go to another gynecologist to evaluate what to do, I went to a gynecologist the other day and he did an ultrasound and an examination, apart from the fibroids that I already knew about, he told me that the endometrium is vascularized and a little irregular and measures 8mm. He told me that I need to look into it further. A few months ago it always measured 8 mm, but he didn t tell me anything. (He didn t talk to me about hormone levels or premenopause or anything else. I want to do hormone levels to see everything in general) I took a lot of antibiotics months ago for dental problems and I don t know if it could interfere with my cycle. I m really desperate also because I have a lot of anxiety problems and this doesn t help... I hope it s nothing to worry about.. I ll try to look into it further. Thank you so much
