The treatment of menorrhagia has changed significantly in two ways. Between 20% to 40% of women complaining of menorrhagia have normal to below normal blood loss and may avoid medical and surgical treatment by learning how to cope with menstrual loss. Ninety per cent of women with menorrhagia not responding to drug therapy can be treated by a wide variety of endoscopic procedures and hysterectomy is required for only a few of these patients. This article reviews the subject with emphasis on current practice and new endoscopic procedures.
月经过多的治疗在两个方面发生了显著变化。在抱怨月经过多的女性中,20%至40%的人失血量正常或低于正常水平,她们可以通过学习如何应对月经失血来避免药物和手术治疗。90%药物治疗无效的月经过多女性可以通过多种内镜手术进行治疗,只有少数患者需要进行子宫切除术。本文重点回顾当前的治疗方法和新的内镜手术来探讨这一主题。
