32. Summary Dysfunctional Uterine Bleeding is a very common disorder at all ages from menarche to menopause.
Though its pathophysioology is still unclear, Estrogen-Progesterone imbalance is usually the basis of bleeding.
Available medical treatment modalities are far from satisfactory.
Ormeloxifene, the latest Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulator, is closest to the perfect SERM, having the desired antirestrogenic and estrogenic action in different tissues.
33. It has a very good safety profile and well tolerated, being practically devoid of side effects.
Recently approved for clinical use in INDIA, it is an effective and safe drug for the treatment of DUB at all ages, because of its antiestrogenic action on the Endometrium.
It is easy to administer and cost effective.
However extensive large scale clinical trials are needed to establish its effectiveness and safety Summary
