Question) I have adenomyosis. What treatment would be best?

When I have my period, I have menstrual cramps, pelvic pain, anemia, etc.

I had severe premenstrual syndrome, so I had to take painkillers.

Last month, I had very heavy periods and irregular bleeding.

I had a checkup at the gynecologist and they said I had adenomyosis.

(※ Adenomyosis: Abnormal endometrial tissue

A disease in which the uterus proliferates and enlarges.

Diseases that progress before menopause)

For reference, there was no problem at another obstetrician/gynecologist I checked with two years ago.

They said there was nothing wrong, but it seems like it's been going on for about 10 years.

The doctor said that the size of the uterus is large and a hysterectomy is definitely necessary.

It is a treatment method, but I am in my early 50s and approaching menopause.

He said that it would be better to wait and see, and that it was giant cell tumor.

I don't recommend Mirena because it seems like it will fall out right away, and hormone pills

Taking birth control pills can regulate menstrual flow and relieve menstrual pain.

Since you recommended it, I'll start using Clara Jeong this month.

I eat at the same time every day.

But there are other medications that need to be taken at the same time every day.

It's not that inconvenientㅜ

My husband tells me to get surgery instead of taking medicine every day.

I can't make a decision easily.

Have you ever been treated for adenomyosis like me?

I would like to ask for advice from those who are in the middle.

Would it be better to try to endure menopause with hormone medication?

Or would it be better to have surgery?
