Living with adenomyosis

Britt was diagnosed with adenomyosis after years of struggling with very painful periods and heavy, frequent, bleeding. Adenomyosis had a big impact on her life. In this short clip Britt speaks about her experience with adenomyosis, from symptoms to diagnosis and treatment.

Adenomyosis is a condition that causes the lining of the womb (the endometrium) to bury into the muscular wall of the womb. To learn more about adenomyosis visit NHS Inform https://www.nhsinform.scot/healthy-li...
