| Popis: | Evaluation and management of abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB) are possible in the office. Approaching AUB evaluation from an etiology-based perspective allows the gynecologist to focus evaluation efforts on the most probable causes of AUB for a particular patient and therefore customize the management accordingly. Developing skills with imaging such as transvaginal ultrasound, saline infusion sonography, and diagnostic hysteroscopy are important for AUB etiology diagnosis. Operative hysteroscopy experience can be developed for AUB management in the office and endometrial ablation provides a minimally invasive solution for some patients. |
