Menometrorrhagia is a medical condition that causes abnormal uterine bleeding characterized by heavy and irregular menstrual periods that occur at irregular intervals. It is a combination of two conditions: menorrhagia (heavy menstrual bleeding) and metrorrhagia (irregular bleeding between periods).

Symptoms of menometrorrhagia include heavy and prolonged bleeding during menstrual periods, irregular menstrual cycles, bleeding between periods, and anemia due to blood loss.
Diagnosis of menometrorrhagia involves a medical history and physical examination, as well as laboratory tests to rule out underlying medical conditions. A pelvic exam, ultrasound, or hysteroscopy may be necessary to identify the cause of the abnormal bleeding.
Treatment of menometrorrhagia depends on the underlying cause of the condition. Hormonal medications, such as birth control pills, may be prescribed to regulate menstrual periods and reduce bleeding. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) may also be used to reduce pain and bleeding. In severe cases, surgery may be necessary to remove fibroids, polyps, or other growths in the uterus.
