Abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB) is irregular bleeding that occurs without recognizable cause. It reflects disrupted hormonal stimulation of the endometrial lining. AUB is common, especially in adolescents, perimenopausal women, and those with structural issues like polyps or fibroids. Evaluation involves history, exam, labs, and imaging to identify structural or non-structural causes. Treatment depends on severity but commonly includes medical options like birth control pills, NSAIDs, or hormonal drugs before considering surgery.
