The paper presents the case of a 47-year-old perimenopausal woman who presented with metrorrhagia occuring after a 2-month period of amenorrhea. The patient was investigated through anamnesis, clinical examination, transvaginal ultrasound, endometrial biopsy and blood tests. The ultrasound showed blood inside the uterine cavity, a 7.5 mm thick endometrium and 2 follicles in the structure of the left ovary, the right one being absent due to surgical ablation. After 16 days of continuous metrorrhagia, uterine curettage was performed. Histopathological examination revealed endometrial hyperplasia without atypia and uterine leiomyoma fragments
