The paper reports a 3-year follow-up of the levonorgestrel intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) used to treat dysmenorrhea associated with adenomyosis, focusing on both efficacy and side effects over time. It is a clinical follow-up design, but the provided text does not include participant characteristics, the outcome measures used, the magnitude/direction of symptom changes, or the specific side effects observed at 3 years. A major limitation is that the full results and any stated caveats are not available in the excerpt provided, preventing confirmation of key findings. This paper is centrally about adenomyosis — it follows LNG-IUS treatment outcomes for dysmenorrhea associated with adenomyosis over a 3-year period.
