    I have been told by several obgyn that 10 pads a day is normal since I was 12 years old. Same with large blood clots. Same with a history of miscarriages early on. On a pain level it's more painful then birth. Can you imagine being told at 12 you will have this pain the rest of your life and it's normal? It wasn't until I gave birth that I had something compare it to and have a doctor believe that I was in pain during my period. Basically if you're in dry active back labor and can walk and talk, it's not normal. It's the same pain I have felt for 20 years of my life. The same pain I was told as as child is something I'd have to get used too. So I was used to it by the time I had my kids. Please be kind to your patients. Lots of us have been told for years it's in our heads. That we are not in pain. So I would take the late diagnosis age with a huge grain of salt. I wasn't diagnosed until I was 34. For 22 years doctors would not even offer additional testing.

      It took until I was in my 40s until I was taken seriously. I've had the issues since I was a teen also. I was told as a teen to see a doctor over my period issues but wasn't listened to. So saying women present late is because we are not listened to.

      I have felt this way since I was young as well. I am now 42yrs old but for my whole life I've had to go to extreme measures to find relief from the pain Ive had to endure. I've had 3 preterm births with each the gestation was longer. I'm now thinking this is why.

    I had adenomyosis and fibroids. My symptoms were heavy bleeding and long periods (14 plus days), painful periods and pressure in lower abdomen. Had to get a hysterectomy and this is where the adenomyosis diagnosis came in as well. 3 fibroids but largest was the size of a small watermelon. Glad it's all gone.

    @styx5565 4 роки тому +10

    Only halfway through the video but I have to say something or I’ll forget. It used to be thought that adenomyosis was associated with older age and multiparity. This is no longer the case. Or at least on UpToDate it’s explains we don’t know. We’ve gotten better at diagnosing it with MRI but there are still no official diagnostic criteria agreed upon. Which is hindering studies. So the only “official” way to diagnose adenomyosis is after a hysterectomy. Who has the easiest time convincing a doctor to do a hysterectomy? Middle age women who have had multiple children. Young nulliparous women have a hard time getting a hysterectomy and therefore an official diagnosis. I do think there may be a factor of increased estrogen exposure, same as endometrial hyperplasia. So age may still be a risk factor just not as strong as once thought. 👍

    I am 48 years old and I have been suffering with Adenomyosis since 2015. I still don’t want to remove my uterus; I also have anemia and I get transfusion and I have tried some of medicine. I had a UFE which it works for almost 2 years, but my menstrual bleeding is back. I don’t know what else to do. I get a lot of pain too.
    They have Dr in Europa, China, India, etc that do adenomyosis remover from the uterus, but they don't remove the Uterus like here in the USA. In the USA they only want to remove the Uterus and not bother helping the female to keep their Uterus which is sad. They should take classes from the others Dr who know how to remove the Adenomyosis

    FYI: I have severe adeno, endo and PCOS. I didn't know what it was and almost bled to death a few months ago with it. I never have been pregnant, never had uterine surgery and never used those items or smoked. It still happens, most of the women I talk to who have it as well have the same chemical sensitivities as I do and other environmental issues so we're thinking that along with our friends who are growing tumors in other places who have that kind of condition, the uterus is opportunistic for some of us depending on what the exposures are. Many of the women in our groups have never had uterine surgery and some can't for other reasons. They only thing that helped my pain is an ibuprofen protocol taking 400-600mg w/food and then 2 hours later doing it again, and another 2 hours later one or two more, usually 3 to 5 pills works perfectly and stops the period flat (Unless it was allowed to go too long or I was asleep when it started.)

    I use a menstrual cup & can say for a fact that before my ablation surgery I lost about 800 ml of blood every month. Horrible anemia. After, I'm still bleeding a significant amount. The pain feels like labor. It feels like my uterus is turning itself inside out. I don't want to remove it, though, because like the Vignette lady I'm 42 & could be nearing menopause.
    I was always anti-birth control because of how it messed with my hormones, but I am wondering if medication to suppress estrogen would be worth trying.

    Is it normal that I will still bleed even if I'm taking Progesterone daily ? I started taking progesterone last June 17, a day after I was diagnosed with adenomyosis. I was amazed that after 2 days my menstrual flow stopped instantly. I started bleeding again on July 13 up to this day. I noticed that I started spotting when I did some strenuous repotting of my plants and like carrying the heavy pots from one side of the garden to another. Could this be the cause of my bleeding again? With this condition, I didn't stop taking my medication. I'm experiencing mild pelvic cramps. Although I'm bleeding again, it doesn't bother me. It's not as much as I had before I was diagnosed . Before it could last 2 to 3 weeks, and really heavy. Thank you for this lecture, I'm glad that I come across your channel. I really wanted to know more and by sharing this experience, I hope I can also be of help to women of the golden age, who are confused and bothered. More power to you.

    Thank you Dr Bolin! I was just diagnosed today. I am 32 yrs old, so not in my 40’s. I am 7+ yrs post opp cesarean and 4 yrs post opp myomectomy, I be had a Mirena removed and reinserted multiple times, 3 times last years and was told that my uterus was tilted so it kept pushing the iud out and the NP said it was best to leave it out. I felt like there was some damage from there back and forth of inserting and removing the iud so many times (along with post coital bleeding) within the space of 2 months, now a year later they recommend I mirena as one of the options to relieve the unbearable pain from this adenomyosis. I am too young to face a hysterectomy!!! Are birth control , tranexamic acid and NSAIDS my only alternative to a hysterectomy??? I want to do more than just put a bandaid on this issue.

    • @pwbmd
      @pwbmd  8 років тому +6

      Some studies have shown a higher prevalence of endometriosis in women with adenomyosis compared to the general population. However, most cases occur separately. It is important to know the differences. So if a woman comes in with chronic pelvic pain, after you've ruled out infectious causes/PID, you should know your basic physical exam findings. A tender uterus that's confluently enlarged is more consistent with adenomyosis, whilst a tender uterus that's nodular is more consistent with endometriosis. Some fibroids can be tender and that can make the differential between (focal) adenomyosis and fibroids tricky. In any case, if you suspect any of these, you want to refer these patients to an experienced gynecologist for transvaginal sono with doppler. The flow patterns tend to be different amongst the three (I discuss this in my lecture on Uterine Leiomyoma).

    A woman who is at risk of another stroke after having one should not take oral contraception/progestins or any other HRT. Hysterectomy sucks as well, still leading to screwed hormones and empty body cavities for the rest of our organs to move and shift. Any brilliant ideas? Will women have to get "permission" from their spouse? (unconscionable).

    • @pwbmd
      @pwbmd  6 місяців тому +1

      I get where you're coming from. Some mild discomfort with periods is to be expected and does not warrant further workup. Debilitating pain (e.g., pain that keeps you home from work) is not normal and needs to be taken seriously. Generally, if I have a woman who says her periods are painful, I don't bother asking her whether it's debilitating because I don't think she'd be complaining if it weren't. A woman knows her own body best.

They're designed to help doctors and medical students answer USMLE test questions correctly. They are certainly not intended to substitute for a doctor's recommendations for an individual patient.

But Agbara Herbal Deep Root Cleanser is the only treatment that can eliminate them altogether. However, the condition often goes away on its own after menopause.But for you to get pregnant, Use Agbara Herbal Medication to treat this in time and get pregnant.

      @hhh__jjjjjjj__95 5 років тому

      As I know we should diagnose adenomyosis "clinically" (diffuse uterine enlargement but not pregnant, and secondary dysmenorrhea), sono or MRI is not routine but the "additional" one that can help diagnosis. Pathologic review after total hysterectomy is the only way that we can "definitely" diagnose this disease.
      In short, we do not do local biopsy for diagnosing this, we use pathologic results only after TAH and can definitely diagnose adenomyosis!
