Female In Forties, Had Period After Many Years. Ultrasound Shows Heart Shaped Uterus. Serious?

Hello, I am 49 years old and hade a period after 10 years, mostly alot of clotting. I had an ultrasound which showed my uterus was between 13-14 mm. I was then scheduled for a hysteroscopy which showed that I had a heart shaped uterus. They also took samples to be tested which I do not have the results back yet. What are my options going forward?

Hi,
Thank you for choosing Healthcaremagic. In your case shape of uterus is not important, what is important is ENDOMETRIAL THICKNESS and your histopathology report. Your further treatment depends on all these reports.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you. In case of any doubt, I will be available for follow-ups. If you like my answers kindly rate it, and write a review as well. Please do not forget to accept it.

Hi, Thanks for using HCM.

Bleeding in menopausal age group needs to be evaluated.
It could be due to:
Endometrial polyp
Endometrial atrophy
Endometrial hyperplasia
Malignant lesion
Abnormal bleeding disorder
As they have already taken sample from endometrium for examination, follow report.

Consult your doctor for examination and management.
Hope I answered your question. Feel free to ask me if you have any further queries.
Wish you good health. Take
care.

Regards
Dr. Vidya
