About AUB and Fibroids:
Menstruation is considered normal when uterine bleeding occurs every 21 to 35 days and is not excessive in amount or duration. The normal duration of menstrual bleeding is between two and seven days and the normal amount is less than 80 milliliters (about 3 ounces). Abnormal uterine bleeding occurs when either the frequency or the quantity of uterine bleeding differs from that mentioned above or the woman has breakthrough spotting between her normal menstrual periods.
Abnormal uterine bleeding is caused by a variety of factors. The two main causes are structural abnormalities of the reproductive system and o v u l a t i o n disorders. Abnormal uterine bleeding often causes women to become anemic, chronically. This may raise her risk for illness by reducing her immune status. In addition, AUB can be embarrassing, can cause loss of work, family time and can impact quality of life. Finally, AUB can impact sexual relationships.
