What is Adenomyosis?

And why are so many women in their 40s suddenly being diagnosed with it?

I’d never heard the word adenomyosis until I was told I had it.

In 2023, after months of heavy, energy-sapping periods that were getting worse by the cycle, I finally had a pelvic ultrasound. I was 45, and what I thought was just “getting older” turned out to be something else entirely.
