Depends: It is hard to diagnose adenomyosis without a biopsy . It is usually something we suspect rather than give a definite diagnosis. It the lining of the uterus which grows into the muscle of the uterus making it like a sponge filled with blood. When menses occur there is heavy bleeding. It is a form of endometriosis and may also cause bad cramps.

I assume it's uterus: It can happen in two organs -uterus and gall bladder. I don't know in your case which one it is. In uterus , the presence of the inner lining of uterus(endometrium ) inside the middle layer of uterus containing muscles cells -myometrium. When it happens in multipole areas it causes thickening of uterus-cause heavy menstrual bleed, chronic back pain and painful mensus. If you are not symptomatic ok.
