This paper reviews current diagnostic aspects and therapeutic options for adenomyosis, noting that a causal therapy is impossible for diffuse forms, especially with fertility desires, and questions remain regarding the effectiveness of some procedures.

AI-generated deep summary by claude@2026-06, 2026-06-09

The paper/chapter reviews current knowledge on adenomyosis, focusing on diagnostic aspects and the state of knowledge on different therapeutic options. It summarizes that adenomyosis is thought to account for many clinical symptoms that were originally attributed to endometriosis, and notes that a causal treatment is not possible, particularly for the diffuse form in patients with existing desire for children, while several approaches have unresolved questions regarding effectiveness and clinical relevance. A key limitation is that the chapter emphasizes gaps in evidence and does not present new original study data. Relevance to endometriosis: it explicitly states that many symptoms previously assigned to endometriosis are attributable to adenomyosis, though the paper’s main focus is adenomyosis diagnostics and therapies.
