All good answers above, but in addition to theirs, the fever makes me suspect an inflammation or infection - have they tested you for Pelvic Inflammatory Disease? It has signs and symptoms like those which you mention. As for what else it could be, the answers above hit all the important points. Good luck to you.

Ok.. now I can't tell you exactly whats wrong unless you specify your age, whether the bleeding is heavy only during your period or if it is persistent, how long your last period was and when, how regular your periods are, since when have you been getting the fever and other symptoms, and how long/heavy your regular periods were before this.
Anyway - if you are above 30yrs of age, considering you have said there is 'something stuck to the wall of your endometrium' and they want to take 'ultrasounds CTscan and biosys', I would coclude that you have one of the following:
a)Fibroids - a benign mass in the uterus. Very common, and mostly asymptomatic, then you dont have to worry. If it starts troubling you however, like bleeding etc, then you may have to remove it. If there are multiple fibroids, a hysterectomy may be needed - an operation where your uterus is removed.
b)Endometrial cancer - the biopsy will confirm it, and your doc will give you appropriate treatment.

Hi! Could it be a fibroid? It sounded similar to what I used to have but it has already a thing of the past. Well, the only thing you could do right now is to wait for the diagnosis because it is never accurate guessing. Just wait patiently for the result to come out and then see what advice your doctor will give to you. Always seek a second or even third opinion if surgery is recommended by your doctor because it's always best to seek other opinions. Replying on just one doctor's view is dangerous because he may not be right! So just got to be very carefula nd don't rush into anything....especially if you are not sure of what you'll be in for and when you are confused and not ready. Continue to take good care of your health whiel awaiting the scan result. Hopefully it's nothing serious. Don't stress yourself too much. Be at ease...at least until the result comes. Take care!

It sounds like they found a lesion in your endometrial cavity. This is different than just finding a lesion in your uterus which is likely a fibroid. My guess is that they want to do a hysterscope or biopsy which is reasonable in light of your symptoms. They won't know what it is until they do that. It can be a polyp, blood clot, sub mucosa fibroid or cancer. Likely the CT can wait until they have the biopsy result. Do not be afraid to ask your doctor again. Write down your questions. Have faith in your military doctors and good luck!

Endometrium is the liner interior the uterus. that's what a fertilized egg attaches to and nourishes the recent egg. FSH simulates the "introduction" of the egg in the previous ovulation. Im no longer too specific what estrogens outcomes are yet i'm hoping this all helps.
