enlarged uterus-no fibroids

Recently I had an ultrasound after my doctor discovered that I had an abnormally enlarged uterus, measuring 14 weeks.  I am not pregnant and I don't have any fibroids.  My period isn't painful or heavy, although it lasts about 8 days per month.  She said that my uterine lining was particularly thick for the time of my cycle.  I have been struggling with extreme fatigue and this was the original reason that I went to the doctor (also for my gyn exam).  I am 43 and it has been years since I had a baby - my youngest child is 18 years old.  What else, besides fibroids could cause my uterus to be so enlarged?

In searching for causes for an enlarged uterus, I found this q&a from someone experiencing something similar.
