Adenomyosis treatment and gynaecological care at Vertex Clinics, Kondhwa

What Is Adenomyosis?

Adenomyosis is a condition in which the tissue that normally lines the uterus grows into the muscular wall of the uterus, which can make the uterus larger, softer and more tender.

During each cycle, this misplaced tissue responds to hormones, so it can thicken and bleed within the muscle. This causes inflammation, cramping and heavy periods. Adenomyosis is not cancer and it is not an infection.

Who Gets Adenomyosis?

Adenomyosis is most often diagnosed in women in their thirties and forties, particularly those who have had children, though it can occur at other ages.

Some women have adenomyosis together with fibroids or endometriosis, which can make symptoms more complex. Previous uterine surgery or procedures may also play a role, although the exact cause is not fully understood.

What Are the Symptoms of Adenomyosis?

Common symptoms include heavy or long periods, severe period cramps, pelvic pain, bleeding between periods, pain during intercourse and a feeling of fullness or pressure in the lower abdomen.

Heavy bleeding can lead to anaemia, with tiredness, dizziness, breathlessness and pale skin. Some women have mild symptoms or none at all, and the condition is found by chance on a scan.

When Should I See a Gynaecologist?

See a doctor if your periods are very heavy or painful, if you need to change pads more than once an hour, or if period pain stops you from daily activities.

Seek urgent care for sudden severe pelvic pain, very heavy bleeding with dizziness or fainting, or any bleeding after menopause.

How Is Adenomyosis Diagnosed?

Diagnosis is based on your symptoms, a pelvic examination and imaging, usually a transvaginal ultrasound, with MRI used when the picture is unclear.

Our evaluation may include:

  • A review of your menstrual pattern, pain and medical history
  • A gynaecological examination
  • A pelvic ultrasound to look at the uterine wall
  • MRI, when needed, to confirm the diagnosis or distinguish it from fibroids
  • A blood count and iron tests to check for anaemia
  • Other tests, if needed, to rule out thyroid problems, polyps or other causes of heavy bleeding

How Is Adenomyosis Different from Fibroids and Endometriosis?

Fibroids are distinct growths in the uterine muscle, endometriosis is uterine-lining-like tissue outside the uterus, and adenomyosis is such tissue within the uterine muscle wall. They can occur together and can cause similar symptoms.

This is why accurate imaging and careful assessment matter, since the right treatment depends on which condition is causing your symptoms.

How Is Adenomyosis Treated?

Treatment depends on your symptoms, age and whether you wish to become pregnant, and may include pain relief and bleeding-control medicines, hormonal treatment, procedures to treat the uterus or surgery.

Our approach to adenomyosis treatment may include:

  • Pain relief medicines to ease cramps
  • Medicines that reduce heavy bleeding and iron treatment to correct anaemia, when needed
  • Hormonal treatment, such as a hormone-releasing intrauterine system or tablets, to lighten or stop periods
  • Short-term hormonal suppression in selected women, for example before fertility treatment
  • Procedures and surgery when medicines are not enough. Options may include selected uterus-preserving procedures or hysterectomy for women who have completed their families
  • Regular follow-up to monitor symptoms and adjust the treatment plan

We explain the benefits, limitations and recovery associated with every option so that you can make an informed decision. Hormonal treatment controls symptoms while it is being used, and symptoms may return after it stops.

Can Adenomyosis Be Cured?

Hysterectomy removes the uterus and is the definitive treatment for adenomyosis, but many women can manage their symptoms effectively with medicines and other treatments. Symptoms often ease after menopause.

The right choice depends on your age, symptoms, overall health and future family plans. Your doctor can explain the benefits and limitations of each option.

Does Adenomyosis Affect Fertility and Pregnancy?

Adenomyosis may make it harder to conceive or carry a pregnancy in some women, but many women with adenomyosis do become pregnant and deliver healthy babies.

It has been linked with a higher chance of miscarriage, preterm birth and certain pregnancy complications, so closer antenatal monitoring may be advised. If you are planning pregnancy, early assessment is valuable, especially if you are over 35. A pregnancy planning consultation with our team can help you prepare. Dr. Ruchi N. Thakur holds a fellowship in infertility, which supports fertility-focused planning for women with uterine conditions.

Can Lifestyle Changes Help?

Heat packs, gentle exercise, adequate sleep, a balanced diet and stress management can ease discomfort, though they do not replace medical treatment.

If your periods are heavy, include iron-rich foods such as leafy greens, pulses and dates. Take iron supplements only as advised by your doctor after appropriate testing.

Is Adenomyosis Dangerous?

Adenomyosis is not cancer and is generally not life-threatening, but untreated heavy bleeding can cause anaemia and reduce quality of life.

Timely evaluation is worthwhile, even if your symptoms have been present for a long time. Appropriate treatment can help manage pain, reduce bleeding and improve everyday comfort.

How Do I Choose the Right Doctor for Adenomyosis?

Choose a gynaecologist who listens to your pain, explains imaging clearly and does not rush towards surgery.

What Should I Bring to My First Appointment?

Bring previous scans and reports, a list of medicines you have tried, and a diary of your periods showing dates, flow and pain.

A record of how many pads you use each day helps your doctor assess the amount of bleeding more accurately. It also helps to write down any symptoms and questions you want to discuss during your appointment.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Adenomyosis Always Need Surgery?

No. Many women manage well with medicines and hormonal treatment. Surgery is considered in selected cases when other treatments do not provide sufficient relief or when appropriate for the woman's circumstances.

Can Adenomyosis Go Away on Its Own?

Adenomyosis often improves after menopause, but symptoms before that may need medical assessment and treatment.

Can I Have a Normal Delivery with Adenomyosis?

Many women can have a vaginal delivery. Your doctor will plan pregnancy care and delivery according to your health, the baby's condition and your individual circumstances.

Can Adenomyosis Come Back After Treatment?

Symptoms may return after hormonal treatment stops and after procedures that preserve the uterus. Hysterectomy removes the uterus and is the definitive treatment for adenomyosis.

Is It Safe to Use a Hormone-Releasing Intrauterine System?

It is a commonly used option for managing heavy bleeding in suitable patients. Your gynaecologist will assess your medical history and symptoms to determine whether it is appropriate for you.
