Endometrium Thickness of 14mm -

Hello all,

I’ve been feeling sore in gynae area for about a year.

i had an ultrasound on 26th Oct 23 privately and then again on the NHS on 5th Dec 23

the later ultrasound report reads as follows:

myometrium - bulky anteverted uterus measuring 90 x 52 x 55. The myometrium appeared heterogenous in echotexture with some cystic spaces identified. There is a focal area within the anterior myometrium which is hyperechoic with cystic spaces appearance. 

cervix - unremarkable 

The endometrium appeared slightly heterogenous and cystic with vascukarity noted within the endometrium. The endometrium measures 14mm in AP diameter. 

adnexal masses or cysts - no 

other comments - x 

urgent Gynecological referral is advised 

so my go received this in Dec 23 and I found out this week that my gp failed to do the referral. So my wait has started 

I have not eaten or slept in 2 days. 

I have 2 young children and my anxiety is through the roof. I have been told that I will get a consultant appointment within the next 2 weeks but then will have to wait for a Hysteroscopy. 

I just wanted to hear from anyone who had been in a similar situation and what the outcome was. 

Worried in an understatement. Someone please talk to me

  • Hello Rm2307

    I'm sorry to hear that you've had some ongoing health concerns and that following your scans at the end of last year, the recommended referral wasn't made. It's understandable that you're feeling anxious. 

    Hopefully, when you see the Consultant they will be able to give you some reassurance ahead of your next appointment but in the meantime, I wonder if you might find it helpful to talk things through with one of our nurses. I know they will be happy to listen and offer any advice, information, and support they can as well as help you think about any questions you might want to ask the specialist. If you'd like to talk with them they're available Monday to Friday 9am to 5pm on 0808 800 4040. 

    Keep in touch Rm2307 and let us know when you have an appointment date and how you get on. We're here to listen and will do our best to support you through this worrying time.
