This paper is a clinical practice guideline that reviews evidence on the evaluation and management of heavy menstrual bleeding (menorrhagia), focusing on women with repetitive heavy regular cycles and excluding acute anovulatory bleeding presentations. It synthesizes research on diagnostic workup (history, pelvic exam, CBC for anemia/thrombocytopenia, and imaging such as pelvic ultrasound, saline infusion hysterography, hysteroscopy, and selective CT/MRI) and summarizes comparative effectiveness and adverse effects for first- and second-line medical therapies, including LNG-IUS, tranexamic acid, combined oral contraceptives, NSAIDs, and progestogens, along with surgical options. The guideline explicitly notes that certain recommendations rely on guideline evidence grading and comparative limitations (e.g., many imaging studies were conducted in anovulatory bleeding cohorts, and LNG-IUS effects may require at least 6 months to judge). This paper does not explicitly discuss endometriosis or adenomyosis; it was included in the corpus via a keyword match in the upstream search index.

Abstract

월경과다는 산부인과 일차 진료에서 매우 흔한 문제로서 많은 여성들의 삶의 질을 저하시킬 수 있다. 본 진료지침은 임상근거자료에 의거하여 월경과다의 진단과 치료에 관한 지식을 제공하여 임상의들이 월경과다 환자에게 제공하는 진단 권고사항 및 치료 권고사항에 신뢰성을 부가하고 임상의의 판단과정에 자신감을 부여하는 근본이 되기 위함이다. 월경과다 환자의 치료로써 기존에 연구되었던 다양한 치료방법들에 관해 연구결과들을 바탕으로 그 효과뿐 아니라 각각의 위험성과 이득에 관해 정리하였다. 본 진료지침이 임상의들에게 최신의 정보를 제공하여 합리적이고 효과적인 치료방법을 선택하는데 도움이 되고자 한다.
