Does adenomyosis cause frequent urination and pain?

1. Patients with adenomyosis to the bladder may experience periodic frequent urination, painful urination, and hematuria. Patients with adenomyosis of the abdominal wall scar and umbilicus may experience periodic local masses and pain. Patients with intestinal adenomyosis may experience abdominal pain, diarrhea or constipation, and even periodic small amounts of blood in the stool. When ectopic endometrium invades and compresses the ureter, unilateral low back pain and hematuria may occur, but this is extremely rare.

2. There are many theories about the pathogenesis of adenomyosis, among which the most widely accepted is the endometrial implantation theory. The occurrence of adenomyosis is also related to the body's immune function, genetic factors, and environmental factors.

3. Due to the different locations of adenomyosis, the clinical manifestations vary. In the early stage, there are usually no symptoms and it is usually discovered due to dysmenorrhea and infertility. Among them, dysmenorrhea is the most common and prominent symptom of patients with adenomyosis. Most of them are secondary, that is, since the onset of adenomyosis, patients complain that they did not have pain during menstruation in the past, but dysmenorrhea began to occur from a certain period. It can occur before, during and after menstruation. Some dysmenorrhea is severe and unbearable, and bed rest or medication is required for pain relief. The pain often worsens with the menstrual cycle. However, there is no dysmenorrhea in simple ectopic ovarian foci.
