Medical therapy effectively treated dysfunctional uterine bleeding in 89 pediatric patients aged 8-18. This approach resolved issues in both premenarchal and postmenarchal bleeding cases.

Area of Science:

  • Gynecology
  • Pediatric Medicine
  • Reproductive Health

Background:

  • Dysfunctional uterine bleeding (DUB) is common in adolescents.
  • Management of DUB in young patients requires careful consideration.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the efficacy of medical therapy for dysfunctional uterine bleeding in patients under 18 years of age.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective analysis of 89 patients treated between 1970 and 1984.
  • Patients aged 8-18 years with premenarchal or postmenarchal bleeding were included.

Main Results:

  • 12 cases involved dysfunctional bleeding at menarche.
  • 68 cases presented with menorrhagia or menometrorrhagia post-menarche.
