Adenomyosis

Adenomyosis occurs when the lining of the uterus — called the endometrium — breaks through the uterine muscle wall. When the lining cells of the uterus bleed during the menstrual period, these misplaced cells in the muscle bleed as well. And bleeding directly into the muscle causes pain. As the blood accumulates, the surrounding muscle swells and forms fibrous tissue in response to the irritation. This swollen area within the uterine muscle wall, called an adenomyoma, feels very much like a fibroid during medical examination. The condition may affect your entire uterus or it can be localized to one area.

Adenomyosis differs from endometriosis and from uterine fibroids. Uterine fibroids are distinct, benign tumors that grow in or on the uterine wall. Because adenomyosis and uterine fibroid causes aren’t known, research is ongoing.
