Question 1

what does endometrial thickness 1.2 cm mean?

Accepted Answer

Menopause status: In a woman who is not of the age of menopause and has menstrual periods this is a normal finding - in a woman of menopausal age, who does not have menstrual periods anymore, an endometrial thickness of 12 mm (1.2 cm) may require sampling of tissue from the uterus.

Question 2

what does it mean if your endometrial thickness is 4.8mm?

Accepted Answer

Good: In a postmenopausal woman, the endometrial lining should be less than 5mm thick. If it is, then there is a less than 5% chance that there is an endometrial cancer present. If it is &gt; 5mm, an endometrial biopsy may be needed.

Question 3

had ultrasound an endometrial stripe thickness of 12mm was found and slight fluid in cul de sac. what does that mean?

Accepted Answer

Depends: The endometrial thickness has limited use in premenopausal women as it will fluctuate throughout the menstrual cycle. The appearance is more important. Ask your doctor to interpret the sonogram in the clinical context of your unique situation to better understand if this is a normal sonogram or not.

Question 4

on my 12th day follicular study my ovary size is 38x23 and 33x26 ovaries are large with small cyst and endometrial thickness 7.7 what is meant by this?

Accepted Answer

It is a phase: During the follicular phase of the menstrual cycle, hormonal changes causes follicular cysts to form in the ovaries and increase in thickness of the lining of the uterus. This coincides when a woman feels abdominal bloating, heaviness, and even moody. This phase is immediately followed by menstrual flow which makes the cysts shrink and allow the lining of the uterus to go back to normal.

Question 5

had an ultrasound. right ovary is 7.6cc and left 8.1cc. endometrial thickness is 2.8mm 
what does this mean. 
can this explain my pelvic pain?

Accepted Answer

No: Nothing from your description of the ultrasound seems to cause your pelvic pain. Pelvic pain has many causes, which may or may not be gynecological in origin. Continue following with your doctor to complete the evaluation and for treatment recommendations.

Question 6

what does it mean if my uterus is 4.8 x 1.9 x 4.1 cm ? and endometrial stripe measures 02.2mm in thickness?  with 5.7 x  5.4 x 6.2 cm cystic lesion? a

Accepted Answer

? ovarian cyst: Your uterus sounds normal.  You don't say where the cystic lesion is, but most likely it's in the ovary.  If so, it needs evaluation, since it's not normal, and likely some type tumor.  If the cystic lesion is in the uterus, i'm not sure what to think.

Question 7

wht it means left ovary stuck to uterus,,endometrial thickness measures .898cm. and retroverted measures 6.133.84cm.

Accepted Answer

Normal ultrasound: If this is an ultrasound or imaging report, it is impossible to tell if the ovary is stuck or adherent to the uterus on imaging.  Endometrial thickness in someone of reproductive age can vary wildly and 0.89 cm is normal.  Retroverted means the uterus is tilted and flexed back towards rectum which is normal.  Uterine sizes are also normal and average

Question 8

what doe these findings really mean? the uterus measures 9.7 x 6.3 x 5.0 cm in size. endometrial thickness is 1.0 cm. at least 3 separate uterine mass

Accepted Answer

Large uterus: Your uterus is mild to moderately enlarged and probably has multiple fibroid tumors or myoma of the uterus.  If you are still menstruating, then the 1cm endometrial stripe is fine.  If you are menopausal then it is not normal and you should have a biopsy of the endometrium

Question 9

what does 4mm intrauterine cystic fluid pocket, mild sac or fetal pole mean? uterus measuring 9.3x4.2x5.1cm. endometrial thickness 6mm?

Accepted Answer

: Your transcription of the report seems slightly off because it doesn't quite make sense. A small cystic area within the uterus could represent a very early pregnancy, but no further comment is possible without further clinical information. The uterine size and endometrial thickness are normal.

Question 10

i am 46 near to menopause my ultrasound of pelvis says that uterus is a bit bulky and endometrial thickness is 0.9cm on 10th day what does that mean?

Accepted Answer

Depends...: If you are still having periods, a 9 mm endometrial thickness is in the normal range.  However, if you are not yet menopausal, this is equivocal but your endometrium may thin out over time.  The uterus being bulky is not really specific  - i would ask your doctor what that means. Maybe your uterus is "more robust" looking than expected for your age but i'm not sure without seeing the whole report.
