Adenomyosis Treatment
Adenomyosis Treatment at MEDVOYAGER
At MEDVOYAGER, we provide specialized care for adenomyosis, a condition where the inner lining of the uterus (endometrium) breaks through the muscle wall of the uterus (myometrium). This can cause heavy menstrual bleeding, severe cramping, and an enlarged uterus. Our team of experienced gynecologists offers comprehensive treatment options to manage symptoms and improve the quality of life for our patients.
Understanding Adenomyosis
Adenomyosis can affect women of any age, but it is most common in women aged 40 to 50 and those who have had children. The exact cause of adenomyosis is not known, but it is associated with hormonal changes and uterine trauma from childbirth or surgery.
Symptoms of Adenomyosis
- Heavy Menstrual Bleeding (Menorrhagia): Prolonged and heavy menstrual periods.
- Severe Cramping (Dysmenorrhea): Intense menstrual cramps and lower abdominal pain.
- Chronic Pelvic Pain: Persistent pain in the pelvic area.
- Enlarged Uterus: The uterus may become tender and enlarged, sometimes causing a bloated or swollen feeling.
Diagnostic Procedures
- Pelvic Examination: To check for an enlarged and tender uterus.
- Ultrasound: Imaging tests to identify any abnormalities in the uterus.
- Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI): Detailed imaging to confirm the diagnosis and assess the extent of adenomyosis.
- Endometrial Biopsy: A sample of the endometrial tissue may be taken to rule out other conditions.
