Aims and objectives: This study aims to analyze the clinicopathological profiles of women with AUB undergoing hysterectomy and correlate clinical diagnoses with final histopathological findings.

Material and method: This is a prospective observational study conducted at the SMS Medical College in Department of Pathology in collaboration with Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology over one year of study period from Feb.2024 to March 2025.

Results and conclusion: In our studies, perimenopausal age (40-49yrs) is the most common age group for hysterectomy. Leiomyoma being the most common structural pathology and hormonal imbalance was the most common endometrial pathology. A case of endometrial carcinoma was detected histologically which was not previously suspected in clinico-radiologically. Our study confirms that histopathological evaluation of endometrium is a useful tool for detecting non- structural causes of AUB
