Abstract

Introduction: An abnormal uterine bleeding condition accounts for one-third of all gynaecological consultations (AUB). Both 
diagnostic and straightforward surgical hysteroscopies can typically be performed in an office environment. Hysteroscopic 
surgery can be carried out without the use of anaesthetic or analgesia. Obesity has long been recognised as a major risk factor 
for the onset of many chronic illnesses, including heart disease, hypertension, type 2 diabetes, stroke, osteoarthritis, and some 
types of cancer, as well as abnormal uterine bleeding including endometrial cancer, polycystic ovary dysfunctional uterine 
bleeding.
Materials and Methods: The study included 120 cases undergoing hysteroscopic examination and icrrelation of finding 
to obesity.
Results: We found that the correlation between complaint and BMI was as follow: Menorrhagia, polymenorrhagia, 
metromenorrhagia and premenstrual spots were significant complaint in obese women, while polymenorrhagia was higher 
but insignificant statically. Fibroid, endometrial polyp, unknown (DUB) and malignancy were significant findings in 
obese women.endometrial thickness (1-4.9 mm), (10-14.9 mm), (15-19.9 mm) and (more than 20mm) were significant in 
obese women, while endometrial thickness (5-9.9 mm) was higher but insignificant statically. Simple hyperplasia without 
atypia, complex hyperplasia without atypia, complex hyperplasia with atypia, atrophic changes and carcinoma were 
significant in the obese patients, while proliferative, secretory and disorder proliferation were higher in obese patients but insignificant statically.
Conclusion: Obesity is strong predisposing factor for abnormal uterine bleeding as there is strong relation between 
obesity and abnormal uterine bleeding as approved by our study.
