Metrorrhagia

Metrorrhagia is also known as dysfunctional uterine bleeding from which women suffer from. It is a common disease and women usually suffer from this during the onset of mensuration. It is also seen in women nearing menopause. There are many causes of metrorrhagia, including hormone imbalance, abnormal growths, pregnancy complications, infections, birth control pills or problems with the hormone producing glands or areas in the brain.  Certain conditions in the uterus or cervix can cause abnormal bleeding, including fibroids or polyps, scar tissue, inflammation, or cancer.
