Ultrasound signs of adenomyosis and related symptoms
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Cancer, Heart & circulation, Kidney & urinary, Mental health, Pain, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study uses ultrasound to look for signs of adenomyosis (a condition where the uterine lining grows into the muscle wall) and see how those signs relate to symptoms. It may help doctors better diagnose and treat the condition.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are a woman who is still having periods or is in the stage before menopause.
- You are having a routine gynecologic ultrasound.
- You can have symptoms related to adenomyosis or no symptoms at all.
- You can use hormonal birth control or hormone replacement therapy.
- You cannot be pregnant or have had certain pelvic surgeries (like hysterectomy or mesh surgery).
- You cannot have cancer, large fibroids, or certain infections.

This study follows people with adenomyosis to see which treatments work best for pain and heavy bleeding. It may help doctors find better ways to manage symptoms.
This study tests whether ultrasound can more accurately diagnose adenomyosis, a condition where the inner lining of the uterus grows into the muscle wall. It may help you get a clearer diagnosis without more invasive tests.
This study looks at what might make adenomyosis (a condition where tissue similar to the uterine lining grows into the muscle wall of the uterus) get worse over time. By tracking volunteers over a period, researchers hope to find patterns or factors that predict progression, which could lead to better monitoring or management.
This study looks at how well different methods (clinical exams, imaging, and tissue analysis after surgery) can diagnose adenomyosis. It is for women who have heavy bleeding and pain, have completed their families, and have decided to have a hysterectomy.
This trial tests a non-surgical treatment (uterine artery embolization) to reduce adenomyosis symptoms like pain and heavy bleeding. If you're considering hysterectomy but want to keep your uterus, this may be an option.
This study measures a protein called L-PGDS (lipocalin-type prostaglandin D synthase) in blood, urine, and tissue samples to see if it can help diagnose adenomyosis (a condition that causes heavy periods and pelvic pain). Researchers are comparing levels in women with and without adenomyosis who are having a hysterectomy, as well as in women without symptoms.
