Determination of Clinico-epidemiological Profile of Abnormal Uterine Bleeding among Women of Reproductive Age Group | Chapter 16 | Recent Developments in Medicine and Medical Research Vol. 5

 Background: In underdeveloped countries, abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB) is a common reason for women of all ages to consult a gynaecologist, and it is one of the most debilitating menstrual issues that leads to a hysterectomy. The researchers wanted to examine at the patients' clinical and demographic parameters, as well as the AUB pattern.

An observational study was conducted at the department of obstetrics and gynaecology at the DR Rammanohar Lohia institute of medical sciences in Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh, from August 2018 to July 2019. All women in their reproductive years who experienced symptoms of irregular uterine bleeding were included in the study.

The bulk of the women were between the ages of 30 and 40 (37.50 percent). The majority of the women (60 percent) had a normal BMI, and 71.66 percent of them were multiparous. 69.17 percent of the population belonged to the middle class. Menorrhagia was the most common symptom (48.3%), followed by oligomenorrhoea (18.1%), and finally polymenorrhoea (13.3%). (17.27 percent ).

Conclusions: Excessive menstrual blood loss is a common reason for women seeking medical help, and it places a pressure on medical resources. According to our findings, most women with AUB were between the ages of 30 and 40, multiparous, and had a normal BMI, indicating that they were middle-class. The most prevalent symptom was menorrhagia. The clinical and epidemiologic trends of abnormal uterine bleeding in reproductive age groups are highlighted in the following study. This is a critical aspect of these patients' treatment. More research with big sample sizes and high levels of evidence should be undertaken to provide evidence of causation in order to forecast causality.
