I’m 37 years old and recently been diagnosed with Adenomyosis. It was discovered when I had surgery to remove a very large fibroid tumor which didn’t actually exist! I’d like to get more information on Adenomyosis. I’m so depressed all the time, have lower back pain and extreme fatigue. My periods are very heavy with clotting and I’m unable to leave the house for days because of it. When I’m not having my period I’m just plain exhausted, sad, achy, and I feel like a complete loser! Are these symptoms normal? Is there anything I can do to help me deal with daily life? I want to be part of society again. Please help! |

I’m 42 and just yesterday I was told that I have Adenomyosis or cancer. I’ve been dealing with heavy periods and pain for over 4yrs. But in the past 6 months its been awful. The pain is in the back,tummy and my left leg will go numb from the pain. But I was told that they couldn’t find my left ovary during the ultrasound. I’m to start progesterone to see if this will help. What is your opinion on just having a hysterectomy and getting it over with, to taking progesterone? |

I am 36 years old and recently diagnosed with adenomyosis. I am blessed to have one child and my husband and I want one more. I have heavy bleeding, lots of clots, and suffer from depression at times. I am still able to function, but have very short patience weeks before and during my period. I am devestated becuase I’ve been told that I may not be able to have another child. Is this my plight? Could you possibly “remove the adenomyosis using the laser technology (that you describe on your website), leaving the endometrial cavity but treating the remaining deep uterine muscle disease” AND I or a patient, STILL BE ABLE TO HAVE A BABY?. Please let me what type of odds I have. thanks. |

Help, I am 32 years old with 4 children my lower pelvic pain started 10 years ago, 4 weeks after having my first child. I have seen doctors and gynacologists and had a laparoscopy 7 years ago. The pain stops during pregnancy and breastfeeding but returns soon after stopping feeding. The pain is unbearable. I have been on Depo injections for the past 18 months since the birth of my last child but this has made me put on 3 stone in weight. I am very depressed and stopped Depo injections in June 2002. To date I still haven’t had a period but the pain over the past 2 weeks has been unberable.The pain comes on during the day especially if I am the go all day. Sometimes I cannot move of the settee it is so bad. Sex is very painful. Could this be endrometriosis. I am due for a laparoscopy next month but am worried that they will not find anything and I cannot take the pain much more. Please help |

I’m confused! My Doctor thinks I have adenomyosis. The uterine biopsy came back clean. I’ve been researching as much as possible. I thought your web page said with the FAS you could take out the effected tissue and leave the uterus AND the ability to have babies but on this page you told someone that there is little chance of a sucussful birth. Your saying no matter what I do I cant have any more kids…I’m only 23!? |
