Case Discussion on Abnormal Uterine Bleeding in Pre & Post Menopausal Women
Abnormal uterine bleeding (AUB) is a significant concern that can affect women in both premenopausal and postmenopausal stages. In premenopausal women, AUB may manifest as irregular or heavy menstrual bleeding, often due to hormonal imbalances, uterine fibroids, or polyps. The evaluation typically involves a thorough history, physical examination, and sometimes imaging or endometrial biopsy to identify the underlying cause. In postmenopausal women, any vaginal bleeding after 12 months of amenorrhea is considered abnormal and requires immediate evaluation to rule out endometrial cancer or other serious conditions. Transvaginal ultrasound and endometrial sampling are essential diagnostic tools in this population. Management strategies vary depending on the cause, and may include medical treatments, hormonal therapies, hysteroscopic procedures, or, in severe cases, hysterectomy.

Massive Transfusion Protocol
Massive Transfusion Protocol (MTP) is a standardized medical procedure activated in cases of severe hemorrhage, typically involving the rapid administration of large volumes of blood products. The goal is to restore circulating volume, maintain hemostasis, and prevent the lethal triad of hypothermia, acidosis, and coagulopathy. MTP usually involves a balanced ratio of packed red blood cells, plasma, and platelets, often in a 1:1:1 ratio. Early activation and coordination among trauma teams, laboratory services, and blood banks are essential for its success.
