Dysfunctional Uterine Bleeding
Dysfunctional uterine bleeding (DUB) is abnormal vaginal bleeding not due to a physical (anatomical) cause that occurs in women in their reproductive years (who have previously started menstruation and not reached menopause).
Causes, Incidence and Risk factors
Dysfunctional uterine bleeding (DUB) is diagnosed after all other causes of abnormal uterine bleeding are ruled out. This includes infection, tumors, disease, early pregnancy disorders or structure problems.
DUB may be caused by an imbalance of one of the hormones related to ovulation (estrogen or progesterone).
Approximately 20% of cases of DUB occur in adolescents and 40% in women over 40. Obesity, excessive exercise and emotional stress may be risk factors for DUB.

Role of Noni
Noni has a broad range of health benefits for various diseases and complaints.
Major components : Noni contains all the vitamins vitamin A , vitamin B complex, vitamin C and vitamin E. It contains all the trace minerals. A number of major components have been identified in Noni plant like scopoletin, octoanoic acid, potassium, vitamin C, terpenoids, alkaloids, anthraquinones (such as nordamnacanthal, morindone, rubiadin and rubiadin-1-methyl ether, anthraquinone glycoside), sitosterol, carotene, vitamin A, flavone glycosides, linoleic acid, Alizarin, amino acids, acubin, L-asperuloside, caproic acid, caprylic acid, ursolic acid, rutin, and a putative proxeronine.
Antibacterial activity : Acubin, L-asperuloside and alizarin in Noni fruit, and some other anthraquinone compounds in Noni roots, are proven antibacterial agents. These compounds fight against infectious bacteria strains such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Proteus morgaii, Staphylococcus aureus, Baciillus subtilis, Escherichia coli, Salmonella and Shigela. These antibacterial elements within Noni are responsible for treatment of skin infections, colds, fevers and other bacterial-caused health problems.
Antitumor activity : Noni exhibits antiangiogenesis effects on tumor. The tumor has the ability to develop its own blood vessels around it to get their nutrition for growth by the process of angiogenesis. Many phytochemicals present in NONI like Damnacanthal, Alizarin, Limonene, Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCg) etc, just a few among the 150+ phytochemicals present in Noni exhibit ANTIANGIOGENESIS effect on the tumor.Thus inhibits growth and induces program cell death or apoptosis.
