Ultrasound Report

Sorry if I'm just blogging now...been busy running errands for the past days, work and my doctor's check up...

I got my result yesterday and it says on the report...

The retroverted uterus is normal in size with homogeneous myometrial echopattern. It measures 4.20 x 3.48 x 4.15 cm. No cystic or solid myometrial mass lesion is observed. The endometrium is thin and hyperechoic measuring 0.65 cm.

The cervix is normal in size. It measures 2.95 x 2.59 x 2.94 cm. Several cysts are present within the cervix, one of which measures 0.30 x 0.30 cm.

Both ovaries are normal in size and echopattern. The right ovary measures 2.57 x 1.60 x 1.61 cm while the left ovary measures 2.29 x 1.32. 1.67 com.

No free fluid seen in the posterior cul de sac.


Impression:

• Normal-sized retroverted uterus with thin endometrium
• Nabothian cysts
• Normal ovaries

Whew! I found out that the cysts in my cervix are not harmful. They're just benign....

**********************************************************************************

Retroverted Uterus- The vagina isn’t positioned vertically within the pelvis - it is angled towards the lower back. In most women, the uterus is tipped forward so that it lies over the bladder, with the top (fundus) towards the abdominal wall. Another normal variation found in some women is the upright uterus, where the fundus is straight up.

Nabothian cysts-is a mucus-filled cyst on the surface of the cervix. They are most often caused when new tissue growth blocks the nabothian glands of the cervix; this traps mucosal secretions in small (usually 2-10 mm in diameter) subdermal pockets. Nabothian cysts appear most often as firm bumps on the cervix's surface.
