[Pharmacologic management of dysfunctional uterine hemorrhage].
From April 1st. to November 15, 1989, 38 patients with disfunctional uterine bleeding, were managed with a combination of ethinylestradiol-norethindrone (0.035 + 0.5mg) for both hemostasis and control. Endometrial sampling with Novak's canula was obtained, and the patient were followed during three months. The mean age was 27 +/- 5.6 years. The mean bleeding time before diagnosis was 12.8 days. The pathologic findings showed a representative distribution of disfunctional disorder. 89.4% of the patients had a good response, with confidence intervals between 81-97%. These findings support hormonal therapy as first alternative in women younger then 35 years old with disfunctional uterine bleeding.
