  • NICE recommend that:

    • physical examination should be undertaken before all:
      • if the woman has a history of HMB with other related symptoms (such as persistent intermenstrual bleeding, pelvic pain and/or pressure symptoms, that might suggest uterine cavity abnormality, histological abnormality, adenomyosis or fibroid)
      • before all investigations or levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system
