Living with Adenomyosis
Adenomyosis is a condition where the womb lining (the endometrium) grows within the muscular wall of the womb too. Although not life-threatening, it can cause severe symptoms.
The Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ's Naga Munchetty has revealed she has a debilitating womb condition. Naga lives with a constant pain that can become so acute that she has to scream. Recently, her husband ended up calling for an ambulance after a serious flare-up. The presenter told her Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Radio 5 Live listeners: "The pain was so terrible I couldn't move, turn over, sit up. I screamed non-stop for 45 minutes." One in 10 women is thought to have adenomyosis, yet it can often go undiagnosed for years. For 5 Minutes On, Naga and her listeners share their experiences.
