Menorrhagia during the perimenopausal period requires treatment through medications, surgery, or other methods. Conditions such as uterine fibroids and adenomyosis can lead to increased frequency and persistent heavy bleeding. Treatment options include taking medications such as gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonists orally, or undergoing surgical removal. If reduced estrogen secretion leads to functional uterine bleeding, estrogen therapy with estradiol or valerate estradiol may be administered under a doctor's guidance.
