The 6 Most Important Things You Need to Know About Adenomyosis
- Ultrasounds are normal, the uterus is normal on exam, but the pain is excruciating and the bleeding horrible.
- Visit after visit to the OBGYN results in birth control pills, IUDs, ablation procedures, embolization, and others that do not help and often make the pain worse.
- Often patients make the diagnosis themselves due to frustration and necessity.
- The lining of the uterus grows into the muscle, bleeds, and continues to grow and become worse with time.
- Unlike fibroids or even endometriosis that can be removed by surgery, adenomyosis cannot since it grows into the muscle like a spider. Eventually, adenomyosis will take over the entire uterus with worsening symptoms.
- Estrogen from the ovaries makes adenomyosis grow.
- Patients suffer pain that can be debilitating physically and mentally with associated fatigue due to very heavy bleeding and anemia.
- Severe pain, heavy bleeding, back pain and pelvic pressure, pain with intercourse are all common symptoms of adenomyosis.
- Routine ultrasound and pelvic exam are not helpful. MRI can sometimes help to make the diagnosis.
- Prior C-Section delivery or uterine surgery, progressive pain and bleeding, and a normal uterus on ultrasound help push the diagnosis to adenomyosis.
- Most patients are in their late 30’s to early 50’s, although Adenomyosis can be seen in much younger patients.
True specialists, such as CIGC Hyper-Specialists have the knowledge and training, as well as the experience, to make the diagnosis just by listening to the patient’s symptoms and history.
- DualportGYN Hysterectomy is the best option: 2 small incisions, lowest complications and recovery time, minimal pain, back to work in 7 days.
- The ovaries and sometimes the cervix can be retained to allow for normal hormone production and no menopause, and to keep the pelvic floor intact and maintain normal sexual function.
- Ablation of the uterine lining and embolization (blockage of the uterine artery blood supply) should never be used for adenomyosis. They will make the condition and the symptoms worse.
- LARA: Laparosopic Assisted Resection of Adenomyosis, is performed by CIGC Hyper-Specialists for Focal disease – adenomyosis “isolated” to a certain area of the uterus that is identified by MRI, and can be resected. Discussion with a CIGC specialists about the risks and benefits of LARA is important.
- Hormone therapy may provide short-term relief of pain and bleeding.
As can be seen from the above picture, adenomyosis grows into the muscle of the uterus, and continues to grow with time causing more pain and bleeding.
Fibroids do not grow into the muscle and are easily removed. Adenomyosis cannot be removed unless the muscle is removed as well.
