Enlarged Uterus

OK, here's a question - my uterus is the size of a 16-week pregnancy. But I've never been pregnant so I don't know how big that is! I've read that a normal uterus is smaller than a fist. Can anyone put this into perspective?

Yup my uterus is the same size as yours - the equivalent size of 16 week pregnancy at least if not more. The size of a normal uterus, I have been told is size of a fist. To use as my gauge, I recall the size of my friends' tummies when they were pregnant.

I just had another ultrasound today. I learned that the previous one was WAY off....I was told my largest fibroid was 6cm, when it is really TEN!

I had a wonderful ultrasound technician and she said my uterus is approx. 16cm right now and the normal is usually between 6cm & 8cm.

Hopefully that will help you.

I am like you...I have never been pregnant and when they tell me my uterus is equivalent to a four month pregnancy, I truly have nothing to compare it to.
