Anyone else with adenomyosis have iron deficiency that just keeps coming back?

My sister has adenomyosis, and she's dealt with recurring iron deficiency because of the heavy menstrual bleeding it causes. Even after taking iron supplements, her iron levels would drop again until her gynecologist started treating the underlying adenomyosis. It was frustrating, but managing the heavy bleeding along with iron therapy made a big difference. If your iron deficiency keeps returning, it's worth discussing both your iron levels and adenomyosis treatment plan with your doctor.

I had a similar experience. Iron supplements helped for a while, but my levels kept dropping until the heavy bleeding was better controlled. Regular blood tests also helped me keep track of my iron levels.
