How is abnormal uterine bleeding diagnosed?

Your healthcare provider will ask you several questions when working to diagnose abnormal uterine bleeding. These questions may include:

• What brings on the bleeding?
• What other symptoms are you experiencing?
• Are you pregnant?

Your healthcare provider will then do a physical exam, including:

• A pelvic exam.
• A cervical exam.
• A Pap smear (Pap test).
