DEFINATION
Metrorrhagia is the term used to describe bleeding between periods, or bleeding unrelated to the menstrual period.
Who gets it?
Any female who has begun menstruating can experience metrorrhagia.


CAUSES
1.Metrorrhagia can be caused by a hormonal imbalance. The start of menstruation during puberty and the length and regularity of the menstrual cycle is controlled by hormones produced in an area of the brain called the hypothalamus, as well as by the pituitary and adrenal glands.
2. The type of hormonal imbalance that causes metrorrhagia can occur when hormone medications, such as birth control pills, are used improperly.
3.Many causes of metrorrhagia are related to the cervix or uterus, including
*cancer
* inflammation or infections
* non-cancerous polyps (growths)
* scar tissue in the uterus (adhesions)
*and the growth of uterine tissue outside the uterus (endometriosis).

Metrorrhagia can also be caused
* by miscarriage
* a pregnancy that is developing in the fallopian tubes (tubal or ectopic pregnancy)
* the use of an intrauterine device (IUD) for birth control
* or chronic medical problems such as thyroid disorders
* diabetes
* and blood-clotting disorders.



SYMPTOMS
*A women or teenager who is suffering from metorrhagia will experience light to heavy bleeding between her regular menstrual periods
*Depending upon the cause she may or may not have a cramping abdominal pain with tyhe bleeding.
*Metrorrhagia caused by miscarriage or a tubal pregnancy almost always includes cramping, which can be severe.
