Benign calcified uterine fibroid

Came up on xray for hip pain. Wasn't expecting that.

Several members of my family died from cancer, so I'm very hyper. Had melanoma. Thanks

They wedged it out and it was a benign calcification, thank goodness. Glad yours wasn’t cancer. I really know that fear, my mom died of it, so did her mom long before I was born

His grandmother died of breast cancer. I knew men could get it but never knew anyone until him. My cousin’s grandmother is from another side of his family..
