Heavy menstrual bleeding

Heavy menstrual bleeding, also known as menorrhagia, is a common condition where a woman experiences abnormally heavy or prolonged menstrual periods. While heavy bleeding can occur occasionally, chronic menorrhagia can significantly impact a woman's quality of life, causing fatigue, anaemia, and discomfort. Dr Abdul Basith offers comprehensive treatment options to address this issue, ensuring that women can regain control of their menstrual health.

Treatment begins with a thorough evaluation, including a detailed medical history and diagnostic tests like ultrasounds or hysteroscopy, to identify underlying causes. These may include hormonal imbalances, fibroids, polyps, or adenomyosis. Once the cause is identified, Dr. Basith offers a range of treatment options, both medical and surgical, tailored to each patient’s needs.

Medical management may involve hormonal therapies, such as oral contraceptives, to regulate menstrual cycles and reduce blood flow. Non-hormonal treatments like tranexamic acid can also be prescribed to decrease blood loss during menstruation. For women with structural abnormalities like fibroids or polyps, surgical interventions may be necessary. Minimally invasive procedures like endometrial ablation or laparoscopic surgery can be performed to remove the source of bleeding, offering long-term relief.

Dr. Abdul Basith’s clinic is equipped with advanced technology and an experienced team to ensure that women receive personalised and effective care. By addressing the underlying causes of heavy menstrual bleeding, Dr. Basith helps women experience lighter, more manageable periods, significantly improving their overall quality of life.
