Uterine Kontraktilität bei Frauen mit Endometriose und Adenomyose
This study investigated uterine contractility in women with endometriosis or adenomyosis compared to controls, finding no significant differences in contraction frequency or tissue stiffness between the groups.

This prospective observational study investigated whether women with a confirmed endometriosis or adenomyosis diagnosis exhibit higher uterine contractility than healthy controls at two menstrual cycle phases (days 1–3 and 8–13). Using B-mode ultrasound combined with shear-wave elastography, the authors analyzed 86 video recordings to derive tissue stiffness (minimum and maximum) and contraction frequency, comparing 22 affected participants with 21 controls. They found no significant between-group differences in contraction frequency, tissue stiffness measures, or related pressure and frequency metrics at either time point (p>0.05). The authors conclude that their hypothesis of increased uterine contractility in endometriosis/adenomyosis could not be confirmed and suggest that other methodological approaches may be needed to clarify the relationship. This paper is centrally about endometriosis and adenomyosis — it directly tests uterine contractility changes in these conditions across defined cycle days.
