First of all, functional uterine bleeding should not be treated blindly with medications. Wuji Baifeng Pills, though traditionally used in Chinese medicine for regulating menstruation, are not very effective for functional uterine bleeding. Therefore, if dysfunctional uterine bleeding occurs, it is necessary to go to the hospital promptly for an examination to determine the cause of the bleeding, whether it is due to endocrine disorder or other organic changes in the uterus or cervix. Treatment should be timely and based on the examination results. If there is thickening or hyperplasia of the endometrium, a dilation and curettage (D&C) for pathological examination may be necessary. Post-surgery, further medicinal treatment will be required. Additionally, it is important to maintain vulvar hygiene and avoid spicy and irritating foods.

How to treat functional uterine bleeding?

Functional uterine bleeding should be treated according to the patient's age. If functional uterine bleeding occurs during adolescence, menstrual regulation treatment is needed. If it occurs during the reproductive age, it requires menstrual regulation and hemostasis, along with treatment to promote ovulation. If functional uterine bleeding occurs during menopause, it is mainly due to a lack of progesterone, and treatment with progesterone can be applied at this time. If there is endometrial thickening, dilation and curettage may be necessary, and the treatment plan should be determined based on the pathological results after the procedure.

How to examine functional uterine bleeding?

Dysfunctional uterine bleeding primarily requires checking for any present anemia with routine blood tests and coagulation studies. Ultrasound is needed to examine the pelvis and uterine cavity, including the thickness of the endometrium. Treatment methods should be considered based on these results. Some cases can be managed with medication; others may require another diagnostic curettage to further clarify the condition of the endometrium; some may need contraceptives or similar treatments for 3-6 months, as this is fundamentally an endocrine issue involving hormonal imbalance, where hormonal treatment tends to be quite effective.

Is functional uterine bleeding serious?

Functional uterine bleeding is a disease caused by hormonal imbalances in women. Most cases of functional uterine bleeding are not serious, but being not serious does not mean it can be ignored. Generally, when a woman experiences functional uterine bleeding, it is recommended to immediately seek medical attention at the gynecology outpatient clinic of a local hospital, undergo a gynecological color ultrasound, sex hormone panel, and other relevant examinations. Identify the causes and types of functional uterine bleeding, and adopt different treatment plans based on different results. Meanwhile, it is important to note that if the bleeding is heavy, it may be necessary to perform a blood cell examination to determine whether anemia has occurred.
