Epidemiology of abnormal uterine bleeding.
Menstrual dysfunction is a common cause of referral to the gynaecology clinic, and the problem has a considerable impact on the health status and the quality of life of women. The aetiology is varied and the burden on the healthcare system continues to grow. There is an urgent need for clinicians to develop effective preventive strategies and treatment modalities that can be available to women in the community.
