asked

During a pelvic examination, my OB/GYN suspected I may have a 'twisted uterus' and recommended an ultrasound to check for fibroid tumors. I am concerned that the ultrasound might reveal something unexpected, such as an ovarian mass or tumor. Can the unusual shape of my uterus and/or the masses felt during the examination be due to something other than fibroid tumors?
