bumpy [appearance]


... would be my suggestion.


Subserosal fibroids grow on the outside of the uterus. They can cause little or no symptoms unless they are severe. They give the uterus a bumpy appearance.

The benign leiomyoma is also called a fibroid tumor. They are common and often require no treatment. They are often diagnosed by physical examination when the examiner feels an enlarged lumpy, bumpy uterus.

After asking you about your symptoms and family health history, your Mayo Clinic doctor uses a pelvic exam to evaluate the position, size and shape of your uterus. If it's enlarged or bumpy, your doctor will probably suspect fibroids and order tests to rule out other disorders that can produce similar symptoms.

lumpy

...is the term you're looking for.

Fibroids are palpable as an asymmetric, rubbery, lumpy uterus.

I looked at various cases gynocological explainations and just thought that a simple English translation sounds more feasible than a lumpy, humpy, bumpy, knotty uterus.
