Among different causes of dysfunctional uterine bleeding, endometrial hyperplasia and endometrial carcinoma are lethal to the patients. Aims: The purpose of this research is to find out the incidence of endometrial hyperplasia and endometrial carcinoma as causative agents of dysfunctional uterine bleeding in this age group (45-55yrs) early, so that the treatment can be started as early as possible. Settings & Design: It is a descriptive study. Materials and Methods: Over a period of one and half years, samples of patients including biopsy, curettages, surgical specimens and review blocks & slides were processed, stained with H&E and evaluated morphologically. Statistical analysis used: Chi square. Results: Total 70 patients’ samples were evaluated and majority (85.71%) was in 45-50yrs age group. Most (54.29%) of the patient had proliferative endometrium. 14.29% patients suffered from endometrial hyperplasia and majority was in 45-50yrs age group (13.33%). 2.86% patients had endometrial carcinoma which was majorly in 51-55yrs age group (10%).
