  CONCLUSIONS
  The development of new therapeutic surgical methods of uterine bleeding calls for a critical evaluation of a possible conservative approach. A few years ago failure of medicamentous treatment was an indication for hysterectomy. Thus conservative treatment was used very frequently. The development of many endoscopic techniques changed fundamentally the algorithm of treatment in women who do not plan another pregnancy. The article gives a critical account of contemporary knowledge of conservative treatment of dysfunctional uterine bleeding.
