Frequently Asked Questions
HMB refers to excessive menstrual blood loss that negatively affects a woman’s quality of life.
HMB specifically refers to heavy bleeding, while AUB includes abnormalities in timing, duration, regularity, or volume of bleeding.
Causes may include fibroids, hormonal changes, adenomyosis, coagulation disorders, endometrial conditions, or structural abnormalities.
These are treatments designed to manage symptoms while preserving the uterus and sometimes fertility potential.
Endometrial ablation is a minimally invasive procedure that removes or destroys the uterine lining to reduce bleeding.
Treatment decisions should reflect patient goals, fertility wishes, symptom severity, and quality of life priorities.
