Question 1

what does it mean if there was a shadow found on uterus?

Accepted Answer

Abnormal: That something is interfering with the normal flow of dye into your uterus, like a fibroid, polyp, uterine septum/anomaly or scar tissue.  A hysteroscopy or saline ultrasound can help figure this out for you.

Question 2

what is shadow on uterus ultrasound?

Accepted Answer

Shadowing: Is an ultrasound term often seen behind calcification and some solid masses as a result of sound wave reflection.  I don't know if this is what you are referring too. If used in some other context the term doesn't convey useful information.

Question 3

i have a cystic structure in my uterus, what could be the reason for it?

Accepted Answer

Cysts in Uterus: A condition called "adenomyosis" can cause cystic changes in the uterine lining and smooth muscle, and is basically a cause for excess bleeding  and cramping with one's periods.  It resembles endometriosis in that it is caused by invasion of the uterine muscle by endometrial tissue, and is a frequent cause for hysterectomy. See your gyn provider for advice and treatment.

Question 4

i have a 31 day cylce i have ovulated and my next period is in 2 weeks. i'm getting  bad cramps on the left side of my uterus, what could this mean?

Accepted Answer

Ovarian cyst vs UTI: Ovarian cysts can cause these kind of pain. But if pain colicky and starts around kidney think of stone or infection . Get urine analysis is very helpful as well as complete ultrasound of pain area at time of worst pain this helps to see if cyst is too big or ruptured or swollen then treatment will be based on correct diagnosis .

Question 5

im 14 weeks pregnant and and o felt a light tapping in my  uterus what could that be?

Accepted Answer

Hmmm: Could be that you are feeling the pulse from the aorta which is behind the uterus. Or, it could be your intestines moving over your uterus. It is not impossible, but it is unusual to feel the baby move before 16 weeks.

Question 6

i went for an ultrasound and they said i have water in my uterus. what could this mean? what type of doctor shouldi see? i have an appointment with my gynocologist in two weeks is this the best type of doctor to go to. also the reason they did the ultraso

Accepted Answer

Hello. : Hello. This is being answered by a psychiatrist. I am not sure, but i believe that what is being called water in the uterus may well be a fluid build up in your endometrium (lining of uterus). I would call your doctor's office to get more information.  I am assuming by the way that this is written that you are not pregnant. If you are, that is a different matter. Sometimes this can be caused my infection. Sometimes it can be caused by malignancy. Your doctor should be able to give you a better idea in the context of your medical history. If there is concern, your doctor could do an enodometrial biopsy. Take care.

Question 7

husband and i are trying for a third child with no luck. i have heavy periods that last between 8 and 10 days. no ovulation symptoms.the last few days i've felt a mildly painful stretching/pulling sensation in my uterus. what could all of this mean?

Accepted Answer

Something is "amiss": The symptoms you are experiencing are suggestive of uterine fibroids which can prevent implantation of a successful conception. Have your GYN MD perform an ultrasound or other diagnostic study. Fibroids are smooth muscle growths in the uterus that grow in response to estrogen and are more common in black, Hispanic and native born individuals as compared to whites.

Question 8

i ovulated feb 24-28, i had unprotected sex 2x. i am now having a tight and sore feeling in my uterus. what could this be? no late period yet  thanks!

Accepted Answer

Non-specific: Your symptoms are non-specific.  You could have an infection in the uterus or bladder, an ovarian cyst, bowel gas or something else.  If the symptoms persist, you should have them checked out.  Best wishes!

i'm a 22 year old mom with a 3 year old.  for the past 2 months i've been feeling movements in my uterus (baby kick like movements). i have had normal periods & currently i have very dull cramps in my uterus.

Accepted Answer

Pregnancy test: First off, start with a home pregnancy test. If you are pregnant, see your OB Dr for follow up. If not, then you probably want to see a Gyn Dr to determine if there is something else going on.

Question 10

Accepted Answer

Could be from many: different causes, could be fibroids, or adenomyosis, or endometriosis, could be infection, or non uterine causes like the bladder which is located in front of the uterus or bowel problems, please see a gyn as you will need an exam and a pelvic ultrasound can be done to look at the uterus and tubes and ovaries
