In view of increasing incidence of adenomyosis and endometriosis reported in recent years, we evaluated the incidence of these disorders in a unique ultra-orthodox Jewish population over the past 20 years by reviewing 1,434 hysterectomy specimens. The incidence of adenomyosis among the hysterectomy specimens decreased from 15.14% in the first 10 years of the period studied, to 9.24% in the second decade (p < 0.05). The incidence of endometriosis remained unchanged, and was very low (1.12%) compared to published data. Our findings highlight the possible effects of heredity, religious and social behavior on the etiology of endometriosis.
