Abstract
In this study, 50 patients were included, (35) with peri menopausal
and (15) with postmenopausal bleeding and another 20 control women (10)
in the peri menopausal age group and (10) in the postmenopausal age
group. All cases were screened using double layer endometrial thick.ness
measurement and Doppler waveform analysis of signals obtained from the
uterine arteries with measuring of the main Doppler indices, the SID ratio,
the Rl and the PI .The results were compared to the histopathological
examination of endometrial biopsy obtained by D & C.
This study showed that patients with abnormal uterine bleeding, whether peri menopausal or postmenopausal had a mean endometrial thickness that was significantly higher than other women of the same age group but not suffering from bleeding. It also showed that the
measured Doppler indices (SID ratio, RI and PI) all showed values that
were significantly lower in patients with bleeding.
