Default uterine fibroids?

If you have early signs but unconfirmed uterine fibroids on an ultrasound report will a gynecologist typically just do the "wait and see" thing or should other tests be done? if so what tests might she recommend? I had the ultrasound because of chronic abdominal/pelvic pain and abnormal bleeding.
I'll be seeing my gyno on monday and am trying to be best prepared to make the most of my time. the u/s showed some abnormal areas that suggests fibroids are starting to form.
how do they know if they are benign? do they have to do a biopsy? what I have is not very big at all. I'm only 27, and am done having chilren but no hysterectomy for me!

It depends on how large they are,Also if they are benign or not.Did your Dr.run any hormone tests?F.S.H.Ask for that!Also,DON'T get a Hysersctomy unless it is the last resort!
