❄️ Interference with her daily activities

🔴 Abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB)
🔷 Menorrhagia is a modern term that mean :
. Excessive menstruation
. Intermenstrual bleeding
. Post coital bleeding
. Post menopausal bleeding
🔷 Causes of AUB [ Mnemonic Category] :
[ PALM COEIN ]
1."Structural causes"
P : Polyp
A : Adenomyosis
L : Leiomyoma
M : Malignancy
2. "Non structural causes"
C : Coagulation disorder
O : Ovarian
I : Iatrogenic for ex. IUD,Drugs as aspirin or warfarin.
E : Endometrial
N : Non classified
🔺 Excessive menstrual bleeding:
🔅> 80ml
🔅Presence of clots
🔅Number of pads changed daily.
🔅It is subjectives diagnosis => depend on pt description of her menses on her own words .
🔅80% of pt in reproductive age complaining of excessive menses .
🔺 Bleeding of endometrial origin = Dysfunctional Uterine Bleeding (DUB)
🔅Abnormal secretion of Prostaglandin.
🔅Chronic anovulation as in PCOS.
📌Evaluation is acheived by history , examination and investigation .
📌 History
- Onset , course , duration
- Presence of clots , number of pads changed daily and if it soak to the clothes
- Fatiguability with exertion => anemia
- Gain weight & Fatiguability => hypothyroidism .
📌 Examination:
🔅 General look and examination
. Signs of anemia
. palpate for pelviabdominal mass.
🔅Gynaecological examination
_ Inspection (bleeding , swelling .....)
_ Bimanual (size, shape, consistency , contour and position of uterus )
_ Speculum examination

🔻Investigation :
According to NICE (National Institute for health and Clinical Excellence ) guidlines :
🔅CBC
🔅Hormonal profile ( If there are indicators suggest endocrine diorder )
🔅Coagulopathy screen ( If there are indicators suggest bleeding disorder )
🔅UltraSound [ transvaginal u.s is better than transabdominal u.s as it detect the size and site of the mass ] .
🔅Endometrial biopsy:
🔷 Indication :
🔸 Endometrial thickness > 4mm
🔸 Pt >45 years old (risk factor)
🔸 If medical ttt is failed
🔸 Ablation for endometrium
🔸 Hysteroscopic guided endometrial biopsy if the Ultrasound did not give enough information
🔸 Therapeutic for small polyps
🔻Treatment:
🥇. Reassurance
🥈. Medical :
🎯If there is no structural factors or if present but not significant.
🎯 Is not a final ttt
🎯 Needs good evaluation and concentratiin on case
🎯 Needs to ask about past medical and surgical history
🎯 Is of two types:
1. Hormonal [ progestron , GnRH (treating fibroids and cause estrogen shut down and amenorrhea) ]
2. Non hormonal [ NSAID, Tranexamic acid]
🥉. Surgical :
🔎 Indication:
🎯 If medical ttt failed [ no response]
🎯If surgical ttt is needed as if medical ttt is contraindicated or the pt is hemodynamically unstable
🔎 Procedure :
🪡Endometrial Ablation :
🔸Uterus size =>10
🔸Fibroid < 3cm
🔸Done by radiologist
🔸 The results:
50% ---> amenorrhea
40% ---> decrease bleeding
10% ---> failure of ttt ( still has bleeding )
🪡Hysterectomy :
🔸For case that
🫧Does not respond to any medical ttt
🫧 With no desire fertility
🔸May be done abdominally or vaginally .
♨️So if pt coming complaining of excessive bleeding :
1. Admission [ A B C D ]
2. Stabilization
3. Evaluation
4. Urgent ttt

📌 Pelvic Organ Prolapse ( POP )
🌻In case of POP we should ask the patient about :-
🔸Predisposing factor as
( chronic cough , chronic constipation , previous prolapse surgery , masses in abdomen , ascites , obesity ) .
🔸Urinary symptoms as
( urine incontinence , difficulty in micturition ,urgency and dysuria ).
🔸Sexual dysfunction as dysparonia .
🌻Obs history is very important in case of POP and we should ask the patient about :-
🔸Instrumental delivery .
🔸prolonged delivery .
🔸IF there's tearing during delivery .
🔸size of baby (macrosomia ) .
🌻In family history ask about
🔸If there's similar condition in her family because may be the cause of POP is Genetic .
🌻In examination we should focus about
🔸Cyanosis , conjunctival hemorrhage , Barrel chest which indicate respiratory disease.
🔸Comment about the Infections , Ulceration , odema and pigmentation in prolapsed organ.
🌻Investigation :-
🔸CBC .
🔸Urine analysis.
🔸Urine culture and swap if there's urinary infection .
🔸Chest X-ray (if there's chronic cough)
🔸 US ( Abdominal and pelvic )
🌻NOTE ...
🔸Signs of UTI are urgency , hiestency , lower pain and fever .
🔸Types of incontinence :-
🥇Urinary incontinence which Classified into ( stress and urge )
★In stress incontinence ask about any cause that increase intra-abdominal pressure as chronic cough , constipation , sneezing , lifting heavy object .
★Urge incontinence associated with detrusor overactivity .
🤔How can we differentiate between stress and urge incontinence ?!
By Urodynamic evaluations .
🥈Fecal incontinence:-
★ present in case of rectocele prolapse due to weakness in the muscle or pelvic Floor , it can be present in form of solid , soft ( in diarrhea ) or in gases ( flatus ) .
