Introduction: Adenomyosis is the presence of endometrial glands and stroma within the myometrium. The exact pathogenesis of adenomyosis remains unclear, but several theories have been proposed. Common mechanisms include the invasion of the endometrium into the myometrium and the formation of adenomyotic foci from Müllerian remnants. Clinically, adenomyosis typically presents with heavy menstrual bleeding, dysmenorrhea, and diffuse uterine enlargement. However, definitive diagnosis requires histopathological examination, with adenomyosis findings present in 20–30% of hysterectomy specimens. Since a definitive diagnosis necessitates surgical tissue sampling, the exact prevalence of adenomyosis in the general population remains undetermined [1]
