Good Practice Recommendations on Adenomyosis
Adenomyosis is a benign but debilitating gynaecological disorder, with an estimated prevalence that varies significantly among populations.
This Good Practice Recommendations paper was developed by an international panel of gynaecology and reproductive health specialists from ESHRE, the European Society for Gynaecological Endoscopy (ESGE) and the World Endometriosis Society (WES). It critically assesses current methodologies for diagnosing adenomyosis, spotlighting the heterogeneity in the literature concerning its terminology, classification, and diagnostic approaches.
The purpose of this paper is to provide recommendations which can aid in the reduction of this observed heterogeneity, aiming to improve diagnosis and disease management in the future.
The Good Practice Recommendations paper is now open for stakeholder review, between 26 May and 23 June 2026.
