What Does Adnexae In A Pelvic Ultrasonography Mean?
Hi Doc. I recently have a Pelvic Ultrasonography due to 3 weeks of menstrual flow which is unusual for me. I'm also experiencing menstrual cramps for days now. The impression that they gave was: 1. Normal Uterus with thickened endometrium (17MM) and 2. Normal Ovaries and Adnexae. What does this mean?

Hello
Thanks for writing to HCM
Your USG report suggests thickened endometrium.You need biopsy of endometrium.Thickened endometrium may be due to both benign or malignant causes, which can only be confirmed by biopsy .
Uterus is normal in size with normal echotexture.
Ovaries and adnexa appears normal.
Hope I have answered your question.
Take Care
