March 8, 2019 updated by: Aljazeera Hospital

The Relationship Between Transvaginal Ultrasound Endometrial Thickness and Body Mass Index and Pathology in Postmenopausal Bleeding

Postmenopausal Bleeding (PMB) is defined as recurrent attacks of bleeding occurring in women after menopause one year at least after stoppage of cycles [

Detailed Description

Premalignant lesions and malignant lesions most commonly complex hyperplasia with atypia and carcinoma of the endometrium are present in 1/3 of patients evaluated for postmenopausal bleed-ing, and so investigations for cases of postmeno-pausal bleeding are mandatory
