• Invasive tissue growth- Uterine incisions made during cesarean section (C-section) might promote the direct invasion of the endometrial cells into the uterus wall.
• Developmental origins- Other experts suspect that endometrial tissue is deposited in the uterine muscle when the uterus is first formed in the fetus.
• Uterine inflammation– Inflammation of the uterine lining during the postpartum period might cause a break in the normal boundary of endometrial cells.

• Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the uterus

What is the Treatment of Adenomyosis?

Home remedies
To ease pelvic pain, try the following home remedies:

• Warm bath.
• Use a heating pad on your abdomen.
• Anti-inflammatory drugs- like ibuprofen to control the bleeding and pain.

Hormone medications
Combined estrogen-progestin birth control pills or hormone-containing patches or vaginal rings might lessen heavy bleeding and pain associated with Adenomyosis.

Endometrial ablation
This involves removing the endometrium- lining of the uterine cavity, which is responsible for Adenomyosis.

Surgery

• Hysterectomy- Removal of complete uterus permanently cures Adenomyosis.
