Abstract Cerebral venous thrombosis can be caused by different conditions such as infectious, structural, hypercoagulable states, hematological, hormonal, collagen, vascular diseases, and oral contraceptive pills among other causes. Adenomyosis has been rarely associated with Cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT). Increased CA‐125 and iron deficiency anemia in adenomyosis may predispose to CVT.
