Overview
What is Adenomyosis?
Adenomyosis is a painful gynecological condition where the tissue that usually lines the uterus grows into its muscular wall, leading to heavy menstrual bleeding, severe cramps, and pelvic pain. This condition can significantly impact a woman’s quality of life and may lead to chronic discomfort and fertility issues.
At Dr. KM Cherian Institute of Medical Sciences, we provide the best adenomyosis treatment in Kerala. Our advanced diagnostic techniques and personalized treatment plans ensure effective symptom relief and improved reproductive health.
Symptoms
- Heavy or prolonged menstrual bleeding
- Severe menstrual cramps (dysmenorrhea)
- Pelvic pain and pressure
- Pain during intercourse
- Bloating or an enlarged uterus
- Fatigue due to anemia from excessive bleeding
Symptoms can vary in intensity and may worsen over time if left untreated.
Causes & Risk Factors
The exact cause of adenomyosis is unknown, but several factors may contribute, including:
- Hormonal changes – Estrogen fluctuations may promote tissue growth.
- Previous uterine surgeries – Such as C-sections or fibroid removal.
- Age and childbirth history – More common in women over 40 or those with multiple pregnancies.
Treatments
At Dr. KM Cherian Institute of Medical Sciences, we offer comprehensive treatment options for adenomyosis tailored to each patient’s symptoms, age, and reproductive goals.
Medications for Symptom Management
- Hormonal therapy (oral contraceptives, IUDs, or hormone injections) to regulate bleeding and pain.
- Anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) for pain relief.
- Iron supplements are used to manage anemia due to heavy bleeding.
Minimally Invasive & Surgical Treatments
- Endometrial Ablation – A minimally invasive procedure to destroy the uterine lining and reduce bleeding.
- Uterine Artery Embolization (UAE) – Reduces blood supply to the adenomyotic tissue, alleviating symptoms.
- Hysterectomy – A definitive solution for severe adenomyosis, recommended for women who do not plan future pregnancies.
Our expert gynecologists carefully assess each patient to determine the best treatment approach, ensuring effective symptom control and long-term relief.
