☄️ ADENOMYOSIS
Adenomyosis is a condition where the lining of the uterus (endometrium) grows into the muscular wall of the uterus. This can cause the uterus to become enlarged, swollen, and tender. Adenomyosis is considered a type of endometriosis, which is a condition where tissue similar to the lining of the uterus grows outside the uterus.
Symptoms of adenomyosis can vary from person to person but may include:
1. Heavy or prolonged menstrual bleeding
2. Severe menstrual cramps
3. Pain during in*******se
4. Pelvic pain or pressure
5. Abdominal bloating or swelling
The exact cause of adenomyosis is not well understood, but some factors that may contribute to its development include hormonal imbalances, previous uterine surgery, and inflammation in the uterus.
Diagnosis of adenomyosis typically involves a physical exam, ultrasound, MRI, or a minimally invasive procedure called a hysteroscopy or laparoscopy. Treatment options for adenomyosis may include pain medications, hormonal therapy, or in severe cases, surgery such as a hysterectomy.
It's important for individuals experiencing symptoms of adenomyosis to seek medical attention for proper diagnosis and management. Adenomyosis can have a significant impact on a person's quality of life, but with proper treatment, symptoms can be managed effectively.
