Management Of Dysfunctional Uterine Bleeding Research Articles

CLINICAL REVIEW

The use of surgical techniques is described for the management of dysfunctional uterine bleeding by endometrial ablation as alternatives to hysterectomy. Current approaches include the neodymium yttrium aluminium garnet (Nd:YAG) laser and resection by electrosurgery using a ball-end electrode. Of 484 patients treated since 1985, 361 (74%) became amenorrhoeic with only occasional spotting 68 (14%) reported satisfactory results with 55 (12%) reporting an unsatisfactory outcome.

Current thoughts on the management of dysfunctional uterine bleeding

Eighty-five private patients, affected by uterine bleeding, were studied and treated by employing norethindrone acetate-ethinyl estradiol combination. Three different regimens of therapy were tried. Hemostasis was readily achieved in almost all but a few instances. The availability of potent progestogens now permits a conservative management of dysfunctional uterine bleeding eliminating the need for repeated curettage or surgical interference.
