Doesn't compute: I guess i don't understand the entire picture as to what your doctor means "thick". I he's worried about cancer, an ultrasound wouldn't help - a pap or biopsy would.

Can a transvaginal ultrasound show female organ cancers (uterus, fallopian tubes, ovaries, cervix, and vagina)? Mine was clear except for a cyst rupture. My doctor doesnt seemed worried even though 2 months without a period. Im beyond worried.
