How Patients and Medical Professionals Can Raise Awareness About Adenomyosis
Adenomyosis is a benign gynecological condition characterized by the infiltration of endometrial-like tissue into the uterine muscle wall (myometrium), causing symptoms like severe pelvic pain, heavy menstrual bleeding, and in some cases, infertility. Despite its significant impact on women's reproductive health, adenomyosis remains remarkably understudied compared to related conditions like endometriosis, with a striking disparity in research attention—as of May 2024, there were only 3,982 entries for adenomyosis in medical literature compared to 35,132 for endometriosis.
