Intermenstrual bleeding

Intermenstrual bleeding refers to bleeding or spotting that occurs between regular menstrual periods. This condition can be alarming and disruptive, especially if it occurs frequently. At Dr. Abdul Basith’s clinic, intermenstrual bleeding is treated with a personalised approach that aims to diagnose the underlying cause and provide targeted treatment.

Several factors can contribute to intermenstrual bleeding, including hormonal imbalances, polyps, fibroids, infections, or the use of certain contraceptives like intrauterine devices (IUDs). In some cases, more serious conditions such as endometrial hyperplasia or cancer may be the cause. A thorough evaluation is conducted, starting with a detailed history and physical examination. Diagnostic tools such as ultrasounds, hysteroscopy, and blood tests may be used to determine the cause of the abnormal bleeding.

Treatment depends on the diagnosis. Hormonal therapies, such as oral contraceptives or progesterone, are often used to regulate the menstrual cycle and reduce or stop the bleeding. If structural issues like polyps or fibroids are identified, minimally invasive surgical options such as hysteroscopy or laparoscopy may be recommended to remove the abnormal growths and stop the bleeding.

Dr. Abdul Basith ensures that every patient receives individualised care based on her specific condition. His clinic is equipped with the latest technology, allowing for accurate diagnosis and effective treatment. By addressing the underlying causes of intermenstrual bleeding, Dr. Basith helps women restore their menstrual health and improve their overall well-being.
