Beaucoup de choses peuvent causer un saignement utérin anormal. La grossesse est une cause courante. Des polypes ou fibromes (petites ou grosses masses) dans l'utérus peuvent aussi causer des saignements. Rarement, un problème de thyroïde, une infection du col de l'utérus ou un cancer de l'utérus peut être la cause d'un saignement utérin anormal.
