A regular menstrual cycle is between 24 and 38 days, with about eight days of bleeding.<\/p>\n<p>Abnormal uterine bleeding may include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Spotting or bleeding in between your period or after sex<\/li>\n<li>A cycle shorter than 24 days or longer than 38 days<\/li>\n<li>Very heavy bleeding during your period<\/li>\n<li>Bleeding after menopause<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>You can experience abnormal uterine bleeding at any time in your life, but it occurs more often during adolescence and perimenopause, which is the transitional period leading up to menopause.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"font-size: 29px;\">Will I need individual tests?<\/h3>\n<p>If you\u2019re experiencing abnormal uterine bleeding, the all-female team at MyDoc Women\u2019s Health Specialists may recommend individual tests to help determine the cause, which may include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Pregnancy test or testing for sexually transmitted diseases (STDs)<\/li>\n<li>Endometrial biopsy<\/li>\n<li>Ultrasound, MRI, or CT scan<\/li>\n<li>Sonohysterography, a specialized ultrasound that uses fluid for better imaging<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The team at MyDoc Women\u2019s Health Specialists may also recommend a hysteroscopy, which is a particular procedure that uses a lighted telescope that your women\u2019s health specialist inserts through your vagina to your uterus to view your uterine tissue more closely.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"font-size: 29px;\">How is abnormal uterine bleeding treated?<\/h3>\n<p>Treatment for abnormal uterine bleeding may depend on the cause. The team may recommend medications, such as birth control or tranexamic acid, which is a medication that helps reduce menstrual blood flow.<\/p>\n<p>If fibroids are causing your abnormal bleeding, the team may recommend gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist, which helps shrink the fibroid to reduce bleeding and symptoms.<\/p>\n<p>If medications can\u2019t help improve your abnormal bleeding, the team at MyDoc Women\u2019s Health Specialists may recommend surgery. However, an operation is usually a last resort after other more conservative treatments have failed to improve your symptoms. Types of services that help reduce menstrual bleeding include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Endometrial ablation<\/li>\n<li>Uterine embolization<\/li>\n<li>Hysterectomy<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>For treatment and management of your abnormal uterine bleeding, call the office, or schedule an appointment online.<\/p>\n<\/div><div style=\"text-align:center;\"><a class=\"fusion-button button-flat fusion-button-default-size button-default fusion-button-default button-2 fusion-button-default-span fusion-button-default-type request-app-btn\" style=\"--awb-margin-top:30px;\" target=\"_self\" href=\"\/mydocwomens\/contact\/\"><span class=\"fusion-button-text awb-button__text awb-button__text--default\">REQUEST APPOINTMENT<\/span><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-fullwidth fullwidth-box fusion-builder-row-3 fusion-flex-container fusion-parallax-none nonhundred-percent-fullwidth non-hundred-percent-height-scrolling\" style=\"--awb-border-radius-top-left:0px;--awb-border-radius-top-right:0px;--awb-border-radius-bottom-right:0px;--awb-border-radius-bottom-left:0px;--awb-padding-top:10%;--awb-padding-bottom:10%;--awb-background-image:linear-gradient(180deg, rgba(0,0,0,0.4) 0%,rgba(0,0,0,0.4) 100%),url(https:\/\/www.toplinemd.com\/mydocwomens\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/249\/2021\/10\/testamonials-background-image.jpg);;--awb-background-size:cover;--awb-flex-wrap:wrap;\" ><div class=\"fusion-builder-row fusion-row fusion-flex-align-items-flex-start fusion-flex-justify-content-center fusion-flex-content-wrap\" style=\"max-width:1216.8px;margin-left: calc(-4% \/ 2 );margin-right: calc(-4% \/ 2 );\"><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-3 fusion_builder_column_4_5 4_5 fusion-flex-column\" style=\"--awb-bg-size:cover;--awb-width-large:80%;--awb-margin-top-large:0px;--awb-spacing-right-large:2.4%;--awb-margin-bottom-large:0px;--awb-spacing-left-large:2.4%;--awb-width-medium:100%;--awb-order-medium:0;--awb-spacing-right-medium:1.92%;--awb-spacing-left-medium:1.92%;--awb-width-small:100%;--awb-order-small:0;--awb-spacing-right-small:1.92%;--awb-spacing-left-small:1.92%;\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-column-has-shadow fusion-flex-justify-content-flex-start fusion-content-layout-column\"><div class=\"fusion-testimonials clean awb-speech-bubble-show fusion-testimonials-1\" style=\"--awb-textcolor:#ffffff;--awb-backgroundcolor:rgba(255,255,255,0);--awb-testimonial-border-style:solid;--awb-testimonial-border-color:var(--awb-color3);--awb-border-top-left-radius:0px;--awb-border-top-right-radius:0px;--awb-border-bottom-left-radius:0px;--awb-border-bottom-right-radius:0px;--testimonial-border-width-top:0px;--testimonial-border-width-right:0px;--testimonial-border-width-bottom:0px;--testimonial-border-width-left:0px;\" data-random=\"0\" data-speed=\"6000\"><div class=\"reviews\"><div class=\"review active-testimonial avatar-above no-avatar\"><blockquote class=\"testimonials-shortcode-blockquote\"><div class=\"awb-quote\"><div class=\"awb-quote-content\">\u201cThe staff is very friendly and professional.
