Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This study aims to enhance the accuracy of ultrasound in diagnosing adenomyosis by establishing specific biometric parameters of the uterus. It will categorize patients into three groups based on their uterine conditions: those with adenomyosis, those with fibromatosis, and those with a normal uterus. The research focuses on the use of transvaginal ultrasound, a non-invasive diagnostic tool, to assess the prevalence of uterine abnormalities and their impact on reproductive health. By refining ultrasound criteria, the study seeks to improve diagnostic reliability and patient outcomes.
