Adenomyosis
Hello there, welcome to the continuation of our discussion on Abnormal Uterine Bleeding. Today, we will be introducing you to Adenomyosis. Our previous post was about Polyps. In case you missed it, you can check it out. So, let’s get into it.
What is Adenomyosis?
This is a disorder that occurs when tissue from the endometrium begins to develop into the muscle wall of the myometrium, which is often referred to as the uterus. It causes your uterus to get thicker and larger. In addition, it may cause menstrual cramping, heavy or extended menstrual bleeding that clots, and abdominal pain.
People over the age of 40 or those who have undergone uterine surgery are more likely to develop adenomyosis. According to studies, adenomyosis can affect 2–5% of women who experience painful periods.
Now that you have gotten the concept of what adenomyosis is all about, look forward to the next article.
