Latest treatment for adenomyosis, surgery is the most common

Adenomyosis is most common in women who have experienced multiple miscarriages and childbirths. They will have symptoms of dysmenorrhea, which will become increasingly severe, with excessive menstrual flow and severe cases leading to female infertility. It needs to be treated as soon as possible. Generally, surgical treatment is the most common method for treating adenomyosis.

1. Surgery is still the mainstay of treatment

Total hysterectomy is particularly suitable for patients with severe symptoms, long disease course, older age, and who have completed childbearing. The operation can be performed using traditional laparotomy or minimally invasive surgery (laparoscopy). The specific decision will depend on the size of the uterus, the degree of internal adhesions, whether there are other complications, and the personal technical ability of the surgeon. For young patients who have not yet given birth, surgical treatment can also be used. However, it is difficult to completely remove the lesions through surgery, and recurrence is easy after surgery. Surgery is more suitable for patients with adenomyomas with more localized lesions.

2. Problems with drug treatment

Drug treatment: No drug has been developed yet that can cure the disease, so if patients see advertisements or secret recipes that claim to cure the disease, they should not follow them blindly.

Patients with mild symptoms can take non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, such as ibuprofen and futaojie. If there are no contraindications to the medication (gastrointestinal ulcer diseases, severe liver and kidney diseases, platelet aggregation disorders), they are relatively safe and mature drugs for long-term use under the guidance of a doctor. However, these drugs are only symptomatic treatments and cannot cure the root cause.

3. Matters that require care in daily life:

Patients should not feel anxious, as this may have adverse effects on their physical and mental health.

Encourage family members to give patients care, consideration and spiritual comfort in their lives, and enhance their confidence in overcoming the disease.

Avoid talking about children, family, and marital relationships in front of the patient to avoid adding to the patient's mental stress.
