Abnormal uterine bleeding

The term "abnormal uterine bleeding" (AUB) refers to uterine bleeding that lasts longer than usual or takes place at an erratic period. Bleeding may be frequent or sporadic, heavier or lighter than usual. AUB might manifest as bleeding or spotting in between periods. following sexual activity. Uterine fibroids, uterine adenomyosis, or endometrial polyps are the most typical causes of such bleeding. Adenomyosis is a disorder in which the lining of the uterus (endometrium) extends into the myometrium, whereas fibroids are benign tumours in the muscular layer of the uterus (myometrium).
