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

What this trial studies

This observational study aims to investigate the risk factors associated with the progression of adenomyosis, a common gynecological disorder affecting women of childbearing age. Utilizing transvaginal ultrasound (TVUS) as the primary diagnostic tool, the study will assess the natural course of adenomyosis and identify factors that may influence its progression over time. Participants will be women aged 18 to 55 who exhibit specific ultrasound signs of adenomyosis, and the study will gather data to enhance understanding of this condition.
