My uterus is anteverted and bulky, measuring 11.18.58.1 cm, with nonhomogeneous myometrial echoes. The endometrial thickness is 3 mm, and my right ovary is 2.11.3 cm while the left is 21.3 cm with normal echoes. Should I consider surgery for this, or is it something that can be treated without surgery?

It's important to consult with a doctor to determine the best course of action for your specific situation. A bulky uterus, particularly with nonhomogeneous myometrial echoes and thickened endometrium, could indicate conditions like fibroids, adenomyosis, or other issues, which may require surgery, medication, or other treatments

I recently had an MTP at 6 weeks, and my ultrasound after 10 days showed there's still some products left in the upper abdomen area, measuring about 18x13.5x10.4 mm. I'm worried and wondering if a D&C is absolutely necessary, or if taking another dose of misoprostol might be an option. What would you recommend?
