Experience Extremely Irregular Periods, Scan Suggests Adenomyosis. Will I Be Able To Have Children ?
Hi there, I have experienced extremely irregular periods for the last 4-5 years and upon relocating to a new suburb sought out a new female doctor to find out what is going on with my body. She suggested I have a Pelvic ultrasound which has shown that my uterus is anteverted and measures 88 x 27 x 40mm. The myometrium is mildly heterogeneous suggesting adenomyosis. The myometrium otherwise
appears normal. A normal secretory endometrial echo complex is seen (AP
dimension 10mm). Both ovaries appear to be normal in size and functional. But I am a little concerned about my ability to have children??? I am only 26 years old.
Thank you

Hello.
Thanks for writing to us.
Adenomyosis considerably decreases the chances of a normal ovulation and thus conception. Since your periods are also irregular, you will need proper treatment from an infertility specialist to help you conceive.
I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
