Abnormal Vaginal Bleeding
Abnormal uterine bleeding is any unusual bleeding from the uterus that is not part of a regular menstrual cycle. It can be a symptom of a variety of underlying conditions, including hormonal imbalances, structural abnormalities, or infections. It can also be a side effect of certain medications or a sign of pregnancy complications.
Abnormal vaginal bleeding can range from slight spotting between periods to heavy, prolonged bleeding that interferes with daily life, including abnormal menstrual bleeding. It may sometimes be accompanied by other symptoms, such as abdominal pain or discomfort.
Abnormal Vaginal Bleeding Treatment
Treatment for abnormal uterine bleeding depends on the underlying cause. A gynecologist will typically begin by performing a thorough physical examination and ordering tests to determine the cause of the bleeding. This may include a pelvic exam, ultrasound, or biopsy. Based on the results of these tests, the gynecologist may prescribe medications to regulate hormone levels, perform a procedure to remove structural abnormalities or fibroids, or recommend other treatments as needed. In some cases, more extensive surgery may be necessary to correct the problem.
It is important for individuals experiencing abnormal menstrual bleeding to seek medical attention as soon as possible, as untreated conditions can lead to more serious problems such as anemia or fertility issues.

Dr. Ciaccio is one of the best doctors I have ever met. She has been so attentive and supportive throughout my entire pregnancy. I was diagnosed with COVID at 32 weeks pregnant. We set up a telehealth appt and she immediately contacted my perinatologist to Collaborate with him on a plan of care. She was accessible to me daily. I could not have gotten through the nightmare of COVID during pregnancy without her support.
Whenever I called the on call doctor they always responded immediately. They were all so kind and helpful at all hours of the night and day. I am so thankful I found Women’s Health Partner’s!!

If you are pregnant and looking for the best care, you found the right place. I saw a few doctors from the Women’s Health Partner office in Boca, and they were all amazing. Most important is that when the labor time came, Dr. Newman and his team were there for me. They were the most caring and experienced doctors you can ask for. Dr. Ciaccio delivered my baby. If I have to do it again I wouldn’t excitate to be with them. I can go on and on on how much I’m thankful for their service. I am also grateful for the receptionist, specially Heidi, she is wonderful.

Dr. Tara Ruberg is a wonderful doctor! She is so friendly and warm. She calls you personally with results, even when everything is negative and normal, which is so personal and kind. She takes time and answers all of your questions. I highly recommend her!
