Dysfunctional uterine bleeding is an endocrine disorder, often age-related. If dysfunctional uterine bleeding is not treated in a timely manner, some people may experience prolonged bleeding, leading to infections, abdominal pain, fever, and other issues. Additionally, some cases of dysfunctional uterine bleeding may result in excessive blood loss, leading to severe anemia, and even the need for emergency blood transfusions. A minority of cases of dysfunctional uterine bleeding involve abnormal proliferation of the endometrium, with some exhibiting precancerous changes. Consequently, the risk of endometrial cancer is relatively increased, necessitating early treatment.
