BBC presenter Naga Munchetty has spoken about her struggles with the debilitating womb condition adenomyosis.

Speaking on Radio 5 Live on Monday the presenter described a flare up over the weekend that was so painful that her husband called an ambulance. She also told listeners about her difficulties accessing treatment; “Right now as I sit here talking to you: I am in pain. Constant, nagging pain.”

While the womb condition is not considered life-threatening, it can present severe symptoms such as extremely heavy and painful periods and bloating.

We’d like to hear from women who have adenomyosis and their experiences accessing treatment.
