Grand Rounds Presentation SAMPLE INTRO

Introduction

Abnormal uterine bleeding occurs in 9 to 14 percent of women between menarche and menopause, significantly impacting quality of life and imposing financial burden. The etiologies and treatments for abnormal uterine bleeding over the reproductive years are best understood in the context of normal menstrual physiology. A normal cycle starts when pituitary follicle-stimulating hormone induces ovarian follicles to produce estrogen. Estrogen stimulates proliferation of the endometrium. A luteinizing hormone surge prompts ovulation; the resultant corpus luteum produces progesterone, inducing a secretory endometrium. In the absence of pregnancy, estrogen and progesterone levels decline, and withdrawal bleeding occurs 13 to 15 days postovulation (Sweet, Schmidt-Dalton, Weiss, & Madsen, 2012).

Abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB) is best defined as irregular menstrual bleeding that is usually heavy, prolonged or frequent.  It is often a diagnosis of exclusion after establishing normal anatomy and absence of other medical conditions. AUB will often coexist with fibroids, endometrial polyps, endometrial hyperplasia and endocervical polyps, however these do not necessarily increase the risk of AUB. Some risk factors do include a history of a cesarean section, being overweight and age; either being in their teens or perimenopausal may increase the chances of AUB. Grand Rounds Presentation Assignment

AUB is typically divided into two categories; anovulatory and ovulatory. Anovulatory bleeding is characterized by irregular or infrequent periods, with flow ranging from light to excessively heavy. Terms commonly associated with anovulatory bleeding include amenorrhea (absence of periods for more than three cycles), oligomenorrhea (menses occurring at intervals of more than 35 days), metrorrhagia (menses at irregular intervals with excessive bleeding or lasting more than seven days), and dysfunctional uterine bleeding (anovulatory bleeding in which underlying etiologies have been ruled out). Ovulatory abnormal uterine bleeding (menorrhagia) occurs at regular intervals (every 24 to 35 days), but with excessive volume or duration of more than seven days.  Excessive menstrual bleeding is defined as the need to change menstrual products every one to two hours, passage of clots greater than 1 inch (2.54 cm), and/or “very heavy” periods as reported by the patient. It is commonly associated with low ferritin levels (Sweet, Schmidt-Dalton, Weiss, & Madsen, 2012). Grand Rounds Presentation Assignment
