Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am 59 no period for 9 years saw o dark blood spot and saw it no more ultrasound results tiny cystic foci 8mm thickness...heterogeneous & thickened stripe.......myomatous uterous neither ovary was visualized. There is a 3.4cm x 3.8 cm x3.7 cm left uterine body fibroid. Dr is this cancer? What is treatmeant?
Hi, Thanks for posting in HCM. I understand your concern. Uterine fibroid is a benign lesion which occurs due to excess growth of muscle tissues of the uterus. In your case, it is advisable to get it removed surgically. If left alone, it can cause dysfunctional uterine bleeding and various complications associated with it. For any cancer to be proven, the tissue which is excised or biopsy tissue needs to undergo histopathological study and reporting. Also, from the findings of the report suggest there could be some other associated conditions along with fibroid, which may need attention. Kindly consult Gynecologist with report for appropriate evaluation and management. Hope the information provided would be helpful. All the best.
