Patients were given menstrual calendars to grade
bleeding each day for one month beginning at the onset of treatment. Grading system was as follows: 0 – no bleeding,
1 – scanty bleeding, 2 – moderate bleeding, 3 – heavy
bleeding, and 4 – heavy bleeding with clots. A bleeding
score was calculated by adding all grades on calendar for
the entire month. Fifty premenopausal patients with DUB
who were treated as described above were included. Patients
with bleeding disorders or with intrauterine pathology like
fibroids, polyps, or endometrial cancer were excluded from
the study
