Dysfunctional Uterine Bleeding Global Market Report 2025

The dysfunctional uterine bleeding market size has grown strongly in recent years. It will grow from $3.29 billion in 2024 to $3.55 billion in 2025 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.1%. The growth during the historic period can be credited to the rising prevalence of hormonal imbalances, growing awareness of menstrual health, increased adoption of hormone therapy treatments, a higher number of women seeking gynecological care, and expanding research and development in women’s health.

The dysfunctional uterine bleeding market size is expected to see strong growth in the next few years. It will grow to $4.82 billion in 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 7.9%. The growth projected for the forecast period is driven by the increasing prevalence of menstrual disorders, heightened awareness of women’s health, greater adoption of advanced diagnostic techniques, expanding healthcare infrastructure, and a growing demand for minimally invasive treatments. Key trends during this period include progress in non-hormonal treatment options, improvements in diagnostic tools for menstrual disorders, development of minimally invasive surgical methods, innovations in menstrual health tracking technologies, and enhanced patient awareness and education initiatives.

The rising prevalence of menstrual disorders is expected to drive the growth of the dysfunctional uterine bleeding market in the coming years. Menstrual disorders encompass any irregularities or abnormalities in the menstrual cycle, such as changes in the frequency, duration, or volume of bleeding. This increase in menstrual disorders is fueled by greater awareness, lifestyle changes, and improved diagnostic methods that allow more cases to be identified and treated. Dysfunctional uterine bleeding aids in understanding menstrual disorders by detecting abnormal uterine bleeding patterns that are not linked to structural or systemic diseases, thereby supporting accurate diagnosis and treatment. For example, in December 2023, the Trust for London, a UK-based nonprofit, reported that 2.8 million people in the UK struggled to afford period products - equivalent to one in five menstruating individuals - and a significant rise from 12% in 2022 to 21% in 2023. Thus, the growing prevalence of menstrual disorders is contributing to the expansion of the dysfunctional uterine bleeding market.

Leading companies in the dysfunctional uterine bleeding market are concentrating on developing new treatments, such as oral GnRH antagonists, to offer effective, non-surgical options that reduce heavy menstrual bleeding by regulating hormone levels. An oral GnRH antagonist works by blocking gonadotropin-releasing hormone receptors, lowering estrogen levels, and shrinking uterine fibroids without the need for invasive procedures. For example, in September 2024, Theramex, a UK-based pharmaceutical firm, launched Yselty (linzagolix), an oral, once-daily GnRH antagonist aimed at treating heavy menstrual bleeding associated with uterine fibroids. This medication offers flexible dosing to better customize treatment for individual patients. It effectively alleviates symptoms while preserving patients’ quality of life and supports fertility preservation during treatment. Overall, Yselty represents an innovative strategy for managing bleeding related to uterine fibroids.

In January 2025, Hologic Inc., a US-based medical technology company, acquired Gynesonics for $350 million. This acquisition adds the Sonata System to Hologic’s portfolio - an innovative, incision-free treatment for uterine fibroids linked to heavy menstrual bleeding. The technology offers uterus-preserving options, strengthening Hologic’s position in the abnormal uterine bleeding market. Gynesonics Inc., also based in the US, specializes in non-surgical medical devices that treat conditions causing dysfunctional uterine bleeding (DUB).

Dysfunctional uterine bleeding (DUB) is characterized by abnormal uterine bleeding, typically caused by hormonal imbalances rather than structural issues. It primarily affects women of reproductive age and can manifest as heavy, prolonged, or irregular menstrual periods. DUB is diagnosed when no pelvic pathology, systemic illness, or pregnancy-related cause is identified. Treatment varies based on the severity and the patient’s reproductive intentions.

The main categories of dysfunctional uterine bleeding are ovulatory and anovulatory. Ovulatory DUB occurs despite regular ovulation and often includes conditions like menorrhagia, polymenorrhagia, metrorrhagia, and dysmenorrhea. Diagnostic methods include hysteroscopy, ultrasonography, dilation and curettage, and endometrial biopsy. These techniques are used in managing menopause, dysfunctional uterine bleeding, endometrial cancer, contraception, hyperplastic precursor lesions, and other conditions. The primary end users include hospitals, clinics, diagnostic centers, and pharmaceutical companies.
