Abstract:
Introduction: Abnormal uterine bleeding is a common complaint faced by patients consulting gynaecologists in all age groups, especially in perimenopausal women. Variations in the menstrual cycle in the perimenopausal period may be due to physiological hormonal changes or pathological etiology.
Aim & Objective: Clinicopathological evaluation of abnormal uterine bleeding in females of the perimenopausal age group.
Materials & Methods: An observational study was conducted in Department of Pathology at Saraswathi Institute of Medical Sciences, Hapur including 100 cases with clinical complaints of abnormal uterine bleeding. Perimenopausal women in the age group of 45 - 55 years were included in this study. The endometrial tissue was collected by sampling procedures such as dilatation and curettage.
