title: [Pre-menopausal dysfunctional menometrorrhagia: therapeutic approach].
abstract: Approximately 10% of premenopausal women suffer from dysfunctional menometrorrhagia. The correct therapeutic approach to this pathology above all requires a precise diagnostic framework. For this purpose the doctor can employ a number of laboratory and instrumental tests, both invasive and non-invasive, in order to differentiate the dysfunctional forms from those supported by organic pathologies or non-gynecological diseases. Once the diagnostic iter has been completed, the choice of therapy can be directed towards surgical or medical treatment; the latter may be symptomatic or causal. This review focuses on the most commonly used treatments for dysfunctional menometrorrhagia in premenopausal women and proposes clinical protocols for a correct diagnostic and therapeutic approach.
