Abnormal or irregular uterine bleeding not related to pregnancy, structural disease, or infection — most commonly caused by hormonal imbalance and requiring timely gynecological evaluation.
Abnormal uterine bleeding without any structural disease — commonly caused by hormonal imbalance.
Dysfunctional Uterine Bleeding (DUB) refers to abnormal, irregular or excessive uterine bleeding that occurs in the absence of pregnancy, infection, tumors or other pelvic disease. It is most commonly related to hormonal disturbances affecting the normal menstrual cycle.
DUB is frequently seen in adolescents and women approaching menopause, when hormonal fluctuations are common. At Maa Nursing Home, we provide accurate diagnosis and personalized treatment plans to restore hormonal balance and prevent complications.
If left untreated, DUB can result in anemia, fatigue, weakness and significant impact on quality of life.
Symptoms vary depending on severity and duration of bleeding.
Diagnosis involves detailed menstrual history, physical examination and investigations such as ultrasound, blood tests and hormonal evaluation. In selected cases, endometrial biopsy may be advised to rule out serious conditions.
Treatment depends on age, severity of symptoms, underlying cause and future fertility plans.
Most patients respond well to treatment. Regular follow-ups help monitor cycle regularity, hormone balance and overall health.
Early evaluation and timely treatment of Dysfunctional Uterine Bleeding can prevent long-term complications and improve quality of life.
