Adenomyosis
Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy
Adenomyosis is a condition in which the tissue that normally lines the inside of the uterus grows within its muscular wall. This can make the uterus thicken and give rise to discomfort related to menstruation.
Common symptoms: Heavy or prolonged periods, intense menstrual pain, a feeling of pressure in the lower abdomen, and, in some cases, pain during intercourse.
When to see a doctor? An evaluation is advisable when bleeding is very heavy or menstrual pain interferes with daily activities.
Which specialist treats it? The gynecologist is the appropriate professional to study adenomyosis and guide its follow-up. If menstrual symptoms affect your quality of life, the most prudent course is to seek a specialized opinion.
