Endometriosis and adenomyosis are distinct yet frequently comorbid gynaecological conditions characterised by the ectopic presence of endometrial like tissue. While both are oestrogen-dependent and share overlapping clinical manifestations, accumulating evidence supports separate pathogenic mechanisms.
