Hello,

I used to suffer badly with heavy periods which led to me being put on two contraceptives (implant and the combined pill). I had the implant removed fairly recently due to my periods being unbearable and now I'm only on the pill. My  GP booked me in for an ultrasound but it ended up being an internal examination. After 5 days of waiting for the results it came back that I had a condition called Adenomyosis which is when the inner lining of the uterus breaks through the muscle of the uterus which causes thickening. I was worried as it's usually common in women older than me, I'm 24. I hope this helps calm your nerves and try not to think the worst :)
