Abnormal Bleeding

Metrorrhagia is a menstrual disorder that involves abnormal bleeding in between or unrelated to the menstrual period. This is often caused by a hormonal imbalance and results in light to heavy bleeding that may or may not be accompanied by menstrual cramps. Treatment for metrorrhagia depends on the cause of the condition, but may include hormone supplements, antibiotic medication, removal of an intrauterine device or surgery for cancer, polyps and other medical conditions.
