Hello and welcome to HCM,
The interpretation of ultrasound of the pelvis is as follows:
1. The uterus is enlarged and there is increase in the size and dimensions of the uterus.
2. The lining of the uterus called the endometrial lining is also thickened. This thickening can occur in conditions like hyperplasia.
3. There are three masses in the wall of the uterus, called fibroids. Fibroids are benign growths of the muscle layer of the uterine wall.
Fibroids are asymptomatic in majority of cases.
Symptomatic cases can cause pain, menorrhagia, dysmenorrhea, etc. They need to be removed surgically.
Thanks and take care.
