ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is looking at how conditions like adenomyosis and uterine myoma (also called fibroids) may be linked to problems with bladder function, sexual health, and digestive issues. The researchers want to understand if women with these conditions experience different symptoms compared to women who do not have them.

Women over the age of 20 who have a uterine myoma larger than 3 cm or signs of adenomyosis are eligible to participate, as well as women who do not have these conditions. If you join the study, you will likely be asked questions about your symptoms and undergo some tests to help researchers gather information. It’s important to note that women with certain infections, past surgeries related to the bladder, or a history of urinary stones are not eligible for this trial. This study is currently seeking participants, and your involvement could help improve understanding and treatment options for women with these conditions.
