Description of CME Course
Abnormal Uterine Bleeding (AUB) accounts for nearly 30% of all visits to the gynecologist and 70% of all visits in the perimenopausal and postmenopausal years [ACOG, 2014]. Recent advancements in diagnostic modalities and new terminology warrant an up-date on this topic. The purpose of this module is to review new terminology, provide evidence-based evaluation for the causes of AUB, and explore appropriate clinical management of AUB in women of various age groups.
