enlarged uterus and frequent, heavy periods?

Question

Now, before everyone says "go to the doctor", let me say, this is a relative I'm asking about, not myself, and she is seeing a doctor about it. I am mainly interested in similar experiences and what they turned out to be, or informal medical opinions on her symptoms. For more information, she is in her early 50's, not yet menopausal, and has never had children. And there is zero chance of pregnancy.

Answer 1

enlarge uterus sounds like fibroid tumors they cause heavy bleeding and possibly swelling in legs and ankles
