Women with dysfunctional uterine bleeding can undergo surgery. The main surgical options for women include endometrial ablation and hysterectomy. Surgery may be considered when medication is ineffective or not suitable. For women experiencing prolonged menstrual bleeding, especially when excessive bleeding is caused by uterine lesions, diagnostic curettage may be required.
