Discussion
AUB - Definitions
In premenopausal women, AUB is diagnosed
when there is a substantial change in
frequency, duration, or amount of bleeding
during or between periods1.
In postmenopausal women, any vaginal
bleeding 6 months2 or 1 year1 after cessation
of menses is considered abnormal and
requires evaluation.
Approach to diagnosis and management of abnormal uterine bleeding; Canadian Family Physicians Journal
AUB – Causes2,3,6
• Dysfuctional Uterine Bleeding (DUB)
• Pregnancy (Normal/Ectopic), Miscarriage
• Adenomyosis
• Use of birth control method (pills, IUCD)
• Fibroid, Polyps
• Endometrial Hyperplasia
• Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome
• Infection
• Carcinoma
3FAQ095 AUB by The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists
How to Proceed?
1. Primary Survey and Resuscitation1
2. History taking1,2,4,5
To identify the type of AUB [ovulatory (cyclical), anovulatory (irregular,
heavy), anatomical (e.g fibroids/polyps)]
Past obstetric/gynaecology history – fibroids, h/o myomectomy
Family history of cervical/endometrial ca.
Medications: ASA, Antidepressants, Anticoagulants, HRT, etc
3. Physical Examination1,2,4,5
To detect systemic involvements, mass per abdomen; pelvic and
bimanual examination must be done. Vaginal swabs TRO infections,
cervical cytology.
Investigations
• Pregnancy Test, Complete Blood Count,
CoAgulation profile1,4.
• Other blood investigations must be according to
differential diagnosis1.
• Ultrasound: Abdomen and Transvaginal for
Ovarian/Uterine diseases (fibroid, polyps)1,2
• Endometrial biopsy TRO endometrial cancer1,2,4,5
• Other: Diagnostic hysteroscopy, sonohysterogram
and Dilation and curettage (D&C)1
Dysfunctional Uterine Bleeding
Dysfunctional uterine bleeding (DUB) is abnormal
bleeding from the vagina that is due to changes in
hormone levels6.
It is a diagnosis of exclusion where other
possibilities (e.g growth, blood disorders) has
been excluded1,2,4,6.
Commonly occurs when the ovaries do not release
an egg. Changes in hormone levels cause period
to be later or earlier and sometimes heavier than
normal1,4,5.
DUB – Symptoms and Signs2,6
• Bleeding or spotting from the vagina between
periods
• Cycle <28 days or >35 days
• Cycle changes each month (irregular)
• Heavier bleeding (such as passing large clots,
needing to change protection during the night,
soaking through a sanitary pad or tampon every
hour for 2 - 3 hours in a row)
• Bleeding lasts for more days than normal or for
more than 7 days
DUB – Other Symptoms6
Due to hormonal imbalance:
• Excessive growth of body hair in a male
pattern
• Hot flashes
• Mood swings
• Tenderness and dryness of the vagina
Symptoms of Anaemia
DUB - Prognosis
Hormone therapy alone usually alleviates the
symptoms4,6.
Other complications include:
a. infertility6
b. anemia (due to blood loss)
c. endometrial cancer6
Management
In Premenopausal and Perimenopausal Women1,4
• Menorrhagia assc. with ovulatory cycles can be
treated with/without hormones. NSAIDs and
Antifybrinolytics.
• Menorrhagia assc. with anovulatory cycles need
to be treated by COCP, levonorgestrel intra-
uterine system (LNG-IUS) or Cyclic Oral Progestin
• Menorrhagia assc. with fibroids can be treated
by tranexamic acid, low-dose COCPs, androgens,
or GnRH agonists.
In Postmenopausal Women1,4,5
• Causes includes: vaginal atrophy (50%),
endometrial ca. (25%) and cervical ca. (2%)
• Endometrial biopsy and/or Transvaginal USG
must be done.
• For vaginal atrophy: Topical Estrogen cream,
tablet or vaginal ring; lubricans; or
moisturizers
Surgical Options1,4,5,6,7
• Endometrial ablation (laser, electrical, thermal or
radiofrequency energy) can be suggested [85% have
fewer symptoms].1,4,7
• Hysterectomy (permanent cure)1,5,7
• Uterine artery embolization and myomectomy can be
used for fibroids.1
• Dilation and Curettage (D&C) is no longer considered
as treatment.1

  • 16. Dysfunctional Uterine Bleeding Dysfunctional uterine bleeding (DUB) is abnormal bleeding from the vagina that is due to changes in hormone levels6. It is a diagnosis of exclusion where other possibilities (e.g growth, blood disorders) has been excluded1,2,4,6. Commonly occurs when the ovaries do not release an egg. Changes in hormone levels cause period to be later or earlier and sometimes heavier than normal1,4,5.

  • 18. DUB – Other Symptoms6 Due to hormonal imbalance: • Excessive growth of body hair in a male pattern • Hot flashes • Mood swings • Tenderness and dryness of the vagina Symptoms of Anaemia
