Adenomyosis

Adenomyosis is a condition in which the inner lining of the uterus (endometrium) grows into the muscular wall of the uterus (myometrium). This abnormal growth can cause the uterus to become enlarged and may lead to painful periods, heavy bleeding, and fertility challenges.

At Matritwa IVF, we provide advanced diagnostic tools and personalized fertility treatments for women with adenomyosis, helping them achieve symptom relief and successful pregnancies.

Causes of Adenomyosis

The exact cause of adenomyosis is not fully understood, but several factors may contribute:

• Previous uterine surgery (such as C-section or fibroid removal)
  
  

• Childbirth – particularly multiple pregnancies
  
  

• Hormonal imbalance, especially excess estrogen
  
  

• Inflammation or uterine trauma
  
  

• Age – most common in women in their 30s and 40s
  
  

Symptoms of Adenomyosis

Symptoms of adenomyosis may vary in severity:

• Heavy or prolonged menstrual bleeding
  
  

• Severe menstrual cramps (dysmenorrhea)
  
  

• Pelvic or lower abdominal pain
  
  

• Enlarged or tender uterus
  
  

• Pain during intercourse
  
  

• Infertility or difficulty conceiving
  
  

Some women may have adenomyosis without noticeable symptoms, and it is sometimes discovered during fertility evaluation.

How Adenomyosis Affects Fertility

Adenomyosis can impact fertility by:

• Affecting the quality of the uterine lining, making implantation difficult
  
  

• Causing chronic inflammation in the uterus
  
  

• Distorting uterine structure in severe cases
  
  

• Increasing the risk of miscarriage
  
  

Early diagnosis and treatment can improve fertility outcomes for women with adenomyosis.

Diagnosis of Adenomyosis

Accurate diagnosis is essential for planning treatment. Common diagnostic methods include:

• Ultrasound (2D or 3D) – Detects uterine enlargement and characteristic changes
  
  

• MRI – Detailed imaging for severe or complex cases
  
  

• Hysteroscopy – Evaluates the uterine cavity when needed
  
  

• Clinical evaluation based on symptoms and menstrual history
