A very quick summary of what hashappened to me lately: I had bleeding, similar to a menstrual period,about 10 days after I had my period( which is very regular). Mygynocologist made a vaginal ultrasound and found a cyst which she saidwould go away and not to worry about. I then got my period about 2 weekslater. At my gynocologists request I visited her on the 4th day of myperiod so she could check out this cyst once again. It was still there andmy gynocologist recommended that I make a pelvic ultrasound . I made this > ultrasound on the 5th day of my next period, and this is the report: > L.M.P. 20/11/2000 > The uterus appears normal in size and echogenicity. > It measures 10.4 cm x 4.7 cm x 4.3 cm. > No masses were noted arising from it. > Both ovaries contain multiple small cysts measuring few mm in diameter. > The left ovary measures 3.8 cm x 2.3 cm x 1.9 cm. > The right ovary measures 3.2 cm 2.9 cm x 1.8 cm. There is a complex cystic lesion with a thick wall noted in close proximity to the right ovary and may be arising from the right tube or is a tubo ovarian mass. > It measures about 6.9 cm in maximum diameter. > Conclusion: > Rt. adnexal mass. > MRI is advised for better assessment. > ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- > -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------- > > I am worried because apparently this cyst from the pelvic ultrasound ismuch larger than the vaginal ultrasound (2.38cm x1.69 cm x 3.76 cm). Couldyou advise me or comment at all about the above information? I am gratefulfor your time. Thank you. > > Zeena Kandalaft > > Zeena > Amman, Jordan

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
