Patient's question:
I am 36 years old this year. During my physical examination, the doctor told me that I might need to have a detailed gynecological examination, mainly focusing on the uterus. Please ask: How is adenomyosis treated?Doctor's answer:
Endometriosis and adenomyosis are similar conditions, both caused by the infiltration of endometrial glandular tissue into the uterine muscle layer, leading to symptoms such as recurrent dysmenorrhea, prolonged menstruation, and heavy menstrual flow. The treatment of adenomyosis mainly includes pharmaceutical therapy, surgical treatment, interventional therapy, and traditional Chinese medicine treatment, among other methods. Treatment options may include pseudopregnancy therapy, intrauterine devices, hysterectomy, or adenomyosis lesion removal.
