Hi,
In adenomyosis of uterus, insertion of hormone releasing intra-uterine device would help on reducing the symptoms and cause amenorrhea. This will reduce invasion of uterine lining in muscles of uterus. If after the limit of IUD activity, the problem recurs / or with intermittent profuse bleeding issues. Hysterectomy would be a definitive answer.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
