Severe, worsening period pain is a hallmark of adenomyosis. Understanding why it happens can help you seek the right care sooner.
The source of the pain
As lining tissue embedded in the muscle bleeds each cycle, it triggers inflammation and intense cramping. Over time, periods can become progressively more painful.
More than ordinary cramps
Unlike typical menstrual discomfort, adenomyosis pain is often debilitating and may be accompanied by heavy bleeding and a heavy, swollen feeling in the pelvis.
Finding relief
From medication to uterus-preserving procedures such as HIFU, several strategies can reduce pain. If period pain is affecting your quality of life, it is worth a specialist evaluation.
