From Diagnosis to Fertility: Optimizing Treatment of Adenomyosis for Reproductive Health

Abstract

Adenomyosis is a benign gynecologic disorder that had previously not been well studied or understood. However, it is now become a more common diagnosis with long-standing implications especially for fertility. In this literature review, the pathophysiology and diagnosis along with management options for uterine preservation and fertility along with more definitive options are reviewed. While there is a better understanding of adenomyosis, there is still more research that is needed to fully elucidate the best ways of management for patients especially in those seeking fertility.
