Uterine Cancer : Dysfunctional uterine bleeding (dub) can be due to many things, such as a polyp, infection, or simply a hormonal imbalance. At your age, uterine cancer is extremely unlikely. Your gynecologist will conduct a thorough evaluation to pinpoint the source of the bleeding and recommend appropriate treatment.
