BBC Breakfast star Naga Munchetty has bravely spoken out about living with adenomyosis, which causes her to “scream” in pain - but what actually is the debilitating womb condition?
Around one in 10 women in the UK have adenomyosis, which occurs when the womb lining (the endometrium) grows within the muscular wall of the womb too.
While the condition is not life-threatening, the frequent pain and uncomfortable symptoms can have a negative impact on a woman’s quality of life. Naga has bravely told how she suffers from “constant, nagging pain” whilst at work, adding: “I'll have some level of pain for the entire show and for the rest of the day until I go to sleep."
