Adverse Obstetrical Outcomes for Women With Adenomyosis

Adenomyosis can be defined as the settling of endometrial gland cells in the myometrium and deformity in the uterus and the prevalence of adenomyosis is according to the patient population and countries around 20%. There are recent publications reporting that this rate increases up to 50% in women dealing with infertility. In adenomyosis, where uterine morphology is affected, it is not thought that the uterus, which is expected to provide many morphological adaptations during pregnancy, will not be affected. Therefore, in this prospective study, it was planned to investigate the effects of adenomyosis during pregnancy.

For this study the presence of adenomyosis will be questioned by using ultrasonographic morphological uterine limitation (MUSA) in women who apply to the outpatient clinic with suspicion of pregnancy and undergo transvaginal ultrasonography for the diagnosis of pregnancy before sixth gestational week.

Patients will be divided into two groups according to the presence of adenomyosis and pregnancy complications such as preterm labor, premature rupture of membranes, cesarean section rates, preeclampsia, fetal malpresentation and preeclampsia will be compared between the groups.
