Summary

Adenomyosis affects approximately 21% of symptomatic women who present to gynecology clinics. The disease is characterized by heavy bleeding and pain during periods. Limited treatment options exist for the treatment of adenomyosis for women who desire future child-bearing or prefer to avoid surgery. Recently, ulipristal acetate has been studied as a treatment option for women who have fibroids and heavy bleeding. The majority of women treated with ulipristal stopped having periods altogether. Our study aims to determine whether ulipristal is an adequate treatment for women with adenomyosis.
