Has anyone around got this? I am having some scans done for very heavy and painful periods that have got worse over last year. Had exam by gp and she says womb is enlarged and it could be this or fibroids. Just wondered what adenomyosis is??!![&:]

Hi Pompeylady,

Just found this on internet

[link= http://www.adenomyosis.org/adenomyosis.htm ]http://www.adenomyosis.org/adenomyosis.htm[/link]

Had a quick read - sounds dreadful. Whether it's this or fibroids I feel sorry for you, they're both very debilitating conditions. Keep up your iron levels.

Take care

Wesam

Hi
I had adenomyosis, which was only diagnosed after I had a hysterectomy. This was carried out in january this year and I have now started taking HRT. Now that I am over my operation I am starting to feel really good and am now pain free after three years.:)

HI

I have had adenomyosis. It resulted in a hysterectomy in January 2005 the 13th to be exact. I got through it and have been able to keep my ovaries as the consultant doesn't want me to be on HRT.

I feel better now than I did for years with regards periods etc.

It is an awful illness. I really feel for you.

I hope it is not adenomyosis for your sake. My heart goes out to you.

Here is a hug and if there is anything I can do just shout.
