My uterus

My doctor told me that my uterus is swollen, so she had me to do a ultrasound. I went to my appointment she said that i have no fibroids or tumors now she wants to do a d&c on me. Does that hurt?

Seriously, get an abdominal MRI.  You're talking a scan versus surgery.  Don't let things rest with merely an ultrasound.

If the doctor can't tell a fibroid with an ultrasound, and won't order an MRI, insisting on surgery instead basically just to look at things, then I would find a new doctor.

The dr said because in the ultrasound doesn't show her if I have fibroids or cancer but I'm not claiming cancer.

Why a D&C?  Ask for a uterine MRI before you have an operation.
