Dealing with Adenomyosis Pain at 22

Have you had your hormone levels checked ( all 3 forms of estrogen)? My estrogen dominance was making my symptoms 10x.

I'm so sorry to hear you're in so much pain. I recently had a serious flare up because of a massive ovarian cyst I had. The pain got to the point that I couldn't be on my feet and bad to work remote as well. It was constant agony. 😥 What kinda helped was a TENS unit at least. I'm also 22 so I really understand how difficult it is to be this young and have this amount of pain.

I’m 27 now; I was diagnosed at 21. I also have pain everyday not just during menstruation or ovulation. It is awful. I’m so sorry that you have to go through so much pain and have to leave your office. It’s really difficult to have to change your lifestyle because of this condition.

So sorry for what you are going through! I am 51 and mine didn’t start getting bad until I was in my late 30s. Luckily, I was done having children by then. I bled all the time (like clots….gross!). I eventually had vaginal hysterectomy (just uterus, not ovaries) and was VERY glad I did.
