Adenomyosis very common in women after childbearing--unusual in young lady without pregnancies.Represents growth of uterine lining into muscular wall of uterus and since very common,main symptom is nothing.Can cause irregular bleeding, and cramping with periods.Usually causes enlargement and softening of uterus.Should not cause continuous,noncyclic, pelvic pain.Difficult to make diagnosis on laparoscopy,unless biopsy done of uterus.Fibroids can look like adenomyosis with uterine enlargement.The best test would be MRI of uterus looking for this problem.
