Hello,

I understand your concern. This ultrasound indicates the presence of uterine fibroids, which are benign tumors in the wall of the uterus. These are a common kind of tumor and in most cases they do not manifest with any symptoms. However, in some cases, they manifest with symptoms such as menstrual irregularities, pain in the pelvic area and problems during pregnancy. If uterine fibroids do manifest with symptoms, then the treatment is usually removal of the uterus. Fibroids usually get enlarged during pregnancy, due to hormonal stimuli, and shrink after menopause.
Wishing you good health and all the best.
