Study of the Prevalence of Endometriosis and Adenomyosis

Our study aims to assess the prevalence of adenomyosis and endometriosis in patients consulting for elective fertility preservation through the diagnosis of these pathologies by transvaginal pelvic ultrasound. Imaging data will be compared with clinical data (patient characteristics, clinical symptoms) as well as the assessment of anxiety, depression, and quality of life collected from the women.

About this study

Adenomyosis and endometriosis are two heterogeneous benign gynecological pathologies, in terms of the presence of diverse phenotypes and their symptomatic presentation: While some women are entirely asymptomatic, others experience pelvic pain, infertility, or abnormal uterine bleeding.

Assessing the prevalence of these two pathologies is challenging: On the one hand, a significant number of women are asymptomatic and not considered in the calculation; on the other hand, endometriosis and adenomyosis are often underdiagnosed, leading to delayed diagnosis.

Endometriosis and adenomyosis are frequently associated. Improving knowledge about the epidemiology of endometriosis and adenomyosis is crucial as both are major causes of clinical symptoms that adversely affect the quality of life in numerous women. This is a significant issue for women's health due to the associated suffering, numerous surgical interventions, healthcare expenses, and the suggested link with pathologies that may affect other organs. Understanding the disease could lead to improved treatment and the development of preventive strategies.

Therefore, it is urgent to determine the frequency of endometriosis and adenomyosis, as well as the correlation between women's characteristics, especially their clinical symptoms, and different phenotypes. In order to assess the prevalence of adenomyosis and endometriosis in a population of women of reproductive age, the investigators intend to conduct this single-center study focusing on patients consulting for non-medical fertility preservation.
