Uterine bleeding refers to any abnormal bleeding from the uterus that occurs outside of the normal menstrual cycle or is unusually heavy or prolonged during menstruation. It is a common gynecological concern that can affect women of all ages and may result from hormonal imbalances, medical conditions, or structural problems within the uterus.
Symptoms of Abnormal Uterine Bleeding

Bleeding between periods
Prolonged menstrual cycles
Irregular menstrual cycles
To diagnose the cause of uterine bleeding, doctors may recommend several tests, including:
Pelvic examination
Ultrasound scan
Blood tests
Hormone tests
Endometrial biopsy (in some cases)
These diagnostic methods help identify the underlying condition and guide treatment planning.
Treatment for uterine bleeding depends on the underlying cause and the patient’s overall health.
Common treatment options include:
Hormonal medications
Birth control pills
Non-hormonal medications
Minimally invasive procedures
Surgical treatment (if required)
The goal of treatment is to control bleeding, relieve symptoms, and address the underlying condition.
