A member asked:
I have several heterogeneous thyroid nodules and cysts with 7mm biggest in size. what does this indicate?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Common. Don't worry: Many people have nodules as they get older. Don't worry about them if they are less than 1cm in size. When and if they get bigger, then we biopsy the solid ones and aspirate the fluid with a needle.
