Homeopathy Medicine for Abnormal Uterine Bleedingabnormal Uterine Bleeding
Normal menstrual flow typically lasts about five days and occurs every 21 to 35 days. Abnormal uterine bleeding, also known as menometrorrhagia, is a condition that affects women’s health when they bleed before or after their monthly periods or when their periods are incredibly heavy and/or prolonged.
What is the difference between menorrhagia and menometrorrhagia?
Once upon a time, the term menometrorrhagia was used to describe two distinct but similar-sounding conditions:
- Menorrhagia:lengthy or excessive menstruation
- Metrorrhagia:unrelated to menstruation, excessive, protracted, or irregular bleeding
Menorrhagia is now referred to as in order to avoid confusion by the International Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO).heavy menstrual bleeding. Menometrorrhagia is now calledabnormal uterine bleeding.
Who does it affect?
However, this does not mean that irregular bleeding will not affect a woman’s condition if she is post-menopausal or pregnant. The term “abnormal uterine bleeding” primarily describes bleeding in non-pregnant people in their reproductive years.
Menopausal women who are bleeding should get checked out because bleeding after menopause is never normal and can appear as rust-colored, pink, brown, or red.
If a woman experiences bleeding while pregnant, she should see a doctor right away. While some causes are benign, others call for medical attention, especially if the bleeding occurs toward the end of the pregnancy.
How common is abnormal uterine bleeding?
Abnormal uterine bleeding affects 10% to 35% of women worldwide, but the actual number may be higher because not everyone who has it reports their symptoms. It usually occurs during menstruation.menarche(when menstruation begins) andperimenopause(the period of time preceding menopause).
The majority of people who experience abnormal uterine bleeding do so when their periods are just starting or about to end, and hormone imbalances are frequently to blame.
