Abstract

There is still no unified theory of the occurrence of adenomyosis. The theories of retrograde menstruation, metaplasia, activation of Mullerian residues, lymphatic and vascular dissemination, iatrogenic dissemination, immunological changes, genetic predisposition, etc. are discussed. The theory of retrograde menstruation is the most relevant among all these theories. The aim is to study the content of folic acid, vitamins B1, D, E, ferritin in the blood, zinc, copper, calcium in the blood and removed uterine tissues, to assess the hormonal status in women with combined uterine pathology leiomyoma and adenomyosis. 150 women underwent a health examination, residents of the cities of Pavlodar and Nur-Sultan, aged 18 to 49 years with benign dishormonal diseases of reproductive organs (the main group). The control group consisted of 40 women without gynaecological pathology. The study of the somatic status, objective general somatic, clinical and laboratory, gynaecological examination was carried out by routine methods. Ultrasound examination was performed for mammary glands, thyroid gland, pelvic organs in a real-time mode according to standard methods.
