摘要
Anything that can significantly improve the accuracy of diagnosis, the cause of abnormal uterine bleeding in peri-menopausal and postmenopausal women can reduce the frequency of hysterectomy as a cure. Abnormal uterine bleeding has become more important on 2nd half of twentieth century, because women are experiencing more menstrual cycles during their reproductive life. AIM To evaluate intrauterine abnormalities in symptomatic peri and postmenopausal bleeding by transvaginal ultrasonography and hysteroscopy. METHOD This prospective study was carried out on 60 patients with peri and postmenopausal bleeding attending Gynaecology OPD at Batra Hospital. RESULT Hysteroscopy has higher sensitivity for diagnosing endometrial abnormalities compared to TVS.
