Overview

The goal of Primary prevention is to prevent the occurrence of an illness or a disease before it occurs. Malignancy can be prevented by controlling estrogen exposure with hormonal medications.

Primary Prevention

Dysfunctional uterine bleeding is due to structural or non-structural causes. As patients often present with bleeding as the primary symptom, there is little that can be done to prevent the underlying causes. It may be helpful to get gynaecological consult early on to detect abnormalities and treat them accordingly.[1]
