Abnormal uterine bleeding

These are deviations from normal menstruation, characterized by an increased duration (more than 8 days), excessive blood loss (more than 80 ml /day) or a disturbed menstrual frequency (interval less than 24 days).

Abnormal uterine bleeding
Abnormal uterine bleeding can be acute or chronic. Acute bleeding requires immediate medical intervention, while chronic bleeding lasts for six months or more and can cause complications such as anemia.
Causes

Inflammatory diseases of the uterus and appendages.

Hyperplastic processes of the endometrium (hyperplasia, polyps).

Adenomyosis (uterine endometriosis).

Uterine fibroids.

Oncological diseases (cervical cancer, uterine body cancer, atypical endometrial hyperplasia).

Estrogen-secreting ovarian tumors.

Disorders of the blood coagulation system.

Traumatic lesion of the external genitalia.

Endocrine diseases (hyper- and hypothyroidism, hyperprolactinemia).

Violation of ovulation processes.

The presence of a niche in the area of the scar on the uterus.

Taking certain medications (antibiotics, blood thinners).

Symptoms

Heavy or prolonged menstruation.

Frequent or irregular bleeding.

Weakness, dizziness, pallor of the skin.

Irritability, asthenia.

Signs of iron deficiency anemia.

After-effects

The main complication of AMC is anemia caused by significant blood loss. This leads to chronic weakness, decreased performance and a deterioration in the quality of life. In acute cases, AMCs can be life-threatening, causing severe complications such as hemorrhagic shock. Chronic bleeding also increases the risk of infectious complications and requires surgery.

Лечение

Conservative treatment:
Conservative treatment:

For the treatment of abnormal uterine bleeding, it is important to take into account the patient's age, concomitant diseases and reproductive plans. The use of hormone therapy is a standard method for regulating the cycle and reducing blood loss. Medications help to stabilize the endometrium and reduce the duration and intensity of bleeding.

Surgical treatment:
Surgical treatment:

In cases where conservative therapy is insufficient, or in the presence of organic pathology (for example, fibroids or hyperplasia), surgical methods are used. Hysteroresectoscopy and separate endometrial curettage make it possible to remove pathologically altered areas of the endometrium and restore normal uterine function. Endometrial ablation— a method of destroying the uterine mucosa used for women who are not planning pregnancy, may also be effective in preventing recurrence of AMC.
