Patient's question:
Can Mifeprex treat dysfunctional uterine bleeding?Doctor's answer:
Mifeprex has a therapeutic effect on dysfunctional uterine bleeding (DUB). Would you recommend taking it?Gynecology, functional dysmenorrhea, abbreviated as DUB, refers to abnormal uterine bleeding characterized by menstrual disorders, caused by dysfunction of the HPOU axis rather than by organic lesions in the reproductive tract. When menstrual bleeding is excessive, especially when symptoms such as dizziness, palpitations, and pallor (indicating anemia) occur, it is recommended to seek medical attention to rule out organic lesions. Only by thoroughly treating these conditions can menorrhagia be fundamentally cured. It is advisable to undergo a sex hormone six-item test at a regular hospital to determine the cause.
It is recommended to use traditional Chinese medicine for treatment, such as Yangyin Zhixue Decoction. Ingredients: prepared rhubarb, white peony root, scutellaria, radix scrophulariae, dendrobium candidum, root bark of psoralea corylifolia, calcined oyster shell, flower stone, carbonized sterculia, and carbonized lotus leaf.
If medication is ineffective in controlling the bleeding, a uterine curettage may be considered. Approximately half of the patients can achieve hemostasis after the procedure.
