Methods of treating functional uterine bleeding in traditional Chinese and western hospitals

If functional uterine bleeding occurs, symptoms such as prolonged menstruation will occur, and bleeding will become very irregular. If the condition is not controlled in time, it will pose a serious threat to everyone's health. So, what are the methods of treating functional uterine bleeding in traditional Chinese medicine hospitals and Western medicine hospitals?

Women with functional uterine bleeding will experience anemia and can take blood-replenishing medicines. When the anemia is severe, blood transfusion should be considered if conditions permit. Then, different treatment measures should be adopted according to different situations. For example, if the patient is an adolescent, bleeding should generally be stopped first, and then cyclical therapy should be carried out to induce ovulation and restore ovarian function, but it must be done under the guidance of a doctor.

After suffering from functional uterine bleeding, you should pay attention to proper rest, avoid mental stress, excessive fatigue or strenuous exercise. If the bleeding is heavy, you should rest in bed to reduce pelvic bleeding, and take uterine contraction and hemostatic drugs, such as ergonovine, oxytocin or atelocell, agrimony, vitamin K, etc. to stop bleeding as an emergency measure.

Married women whose symptoms are difficult to control with drug treatment may consider curettage. Symptoms can be relieved after curettage in about half of patients. For menopausal women, if drug and curettage are ineffective, hysterectomy or radioactive menopause may be considered, that is, 1500-1800 mg/hour of radium is placed in the uterus to destroy the endometrium, harden the blood vessels, and achieve the purpose of hemostasis, or a small amount of deep X-rays are used to irradiate the ovaries to destroy ovarian function and cause permanent amenorrhea. However, it has a great impact on systemic metabolism and should not be used unless absolutely necessary.
