Everything You Need to Know About Adenomyosis

Gabrielle Union has never been shy when it comes to sharing her fertility struggles with her fans. At a recent event, she gave even more insight to some of the challenges she faced - including the details of her adenomyosis diagnosis.

"Fertility is not an older women issue, it is an issue period," the 45-year-old said during a BlogHer conference in New York City. "Towards the end of my fertility journey, I finally got some answers, because everyone had just sort of chalked it up to 'You're a career woman, you've prioritized your career, you waiting too long and now you're just too old to have a kid. And that's on you for wanting a career.'"

But Gabrielle's case is especially unusual given the age at which she was diagnosed, as it usually affects middle-aged women: "The reality is I actually have adenomyosis," she said. "There is nothing you can do about adenomyosis. The gag is that I had adenomyosis in my early 20s."
