Adenomyosis is perhaps one of the less known female reproductive conditions. It shares symptoms with the much-highlighted endometriosis, but both affect different parts of the body and require different treatments.
Here’s what you need to know. Adenomyosis affects cells on the lining of the womb, growing within the muscles of the uterus. This disorder leads to enlargement of the uterus and painful and heavy periods which increase the risk of anemia- which occurs when the body doesn’t have enough iron-rich red blood cells. Those with the condition may feel chronically fatigued or cold.
