  • Patient pain and suffering from adenomyosis is frequently invalidated by healthcare providers, contributing to delayed diagnosis and treatment initiation
  • Despite being a common condition with significant clinical impact, adenomyosis requires improved clinician awareness and validation of patient symptoms for better outcomes
