Having Lupus, Sjogren S, Adednosis And Raynaud S. What Can I Expect From An Uterine Biopsy?

Hello, I am 56 years old. My g.y.n. says I have Adednosis. Not sure if I spelled that correctly. Anyway, Monday I am going to have a uterine biopsy. She is sending me to a surgeon regardless of my biopsy outcome. Will I stay in the hospital after my hysterectomy? I have lupus, sjogren s, and raynaud s. Will my recovery be more difficult?

Dear patient,

Thanks for the query. Probably the diagnosis is adenomyosis; if a histerectomy is planned, then you will likely spent 48-72 hours in the hospital; if you are on chronic steroids, it may make the healing a bit more difficult and you would be more susceptible to infection compared to other patients not taking such drugs.


Hope that helps, wish you the best,

Dr Brenes-Salazar MD
