Treatment and study plan

Doppler

Device

Doing doppler for women having IUCD associated menorrhagia

Primary outcomes

  1. Resistance index and Pulsitality index (Predicting the response to IUCD associated menorrhagia)

    Time frame: 1 year

    Base line uterine artery doppler is done to the patient complaining of IUCD related menorrhagia prior to treatment , parameters of doppler are: resistance index and pulsitality index, then the patient takes mefenamic acid tablets 500 mg three times daily for five days, assessment of response whether the patient is responder or not is done using pictorial blood loss assessment chart then base line doppler parameters in responders and non responders are compared to correlate the response to base line doppler parameters
