Open publisher page 32 citations

Abstract

Dysfunctional uterine bleeding is one of the most frequent urgent gynecologic problems of the adolescent. Its diagnosis is by exclusion. Dysfunctional bleeding is managed expectantly with the anticipation of ovulation, individualization of therapy and continuous observation. In severe cases, hormal hemostasis and 3 months of cyclic therapy are indicated. In a small percentage of patients dysfunctional bleeding may persist and be associated with serious chronic disturbances.
