Gynecology

Abnormal uterine bleeding

Evaluation and treatment of heavy, irregular or unexpected bleeding.

What it is

Abnormal uterine bleeding includes heavy, prolonged or irregular periods, bleeding between periods and bleeding after sex or after menopause.

Who it's for

Women whose bleeding affects daily life or has changed, and anyone with bleeding after menopause.

What to expect

  • Blood tests for anemia and other causes
  • Pelvic ultrasound
  • Sampling of the womb lining or hysteroscopy when indicated
  • Medical treatment or procedures tailored to the cause

Common questions

Is heavy bleeding normal as I get older?
Periods can change, but heavy bleeding is not something you have to live with. It should be assessed.
