Hello and welcome,
Anteverted uterus is a normal finding. The abnormal findings are the multiple fibroids and some are big in size. These are non cancerous uterine tumors and are common.
Since they are big, they are less likely to respond to treatment other than surgery. So surgery is a good option. Non surgical treatment include embolisation, progesterone hormone analogues and Gn RH analogues to help shrink the fibroids. However the response is not good if the fibroids are big and most women end up with surgery.
Hope this satisfies your query.
Thanks for using HCM.
