## Contribution

Demonstrates the effectiveness of structured nursing interventions in improving outcomes for women with AUB in an Indian context.

- Demographic factors influenced patient outcomes.

## Abstract

Abnormal Uterine Bleeding (AUB) affects 10-30% of women of reproductive age, often leading to physical and emotional distress.
Therefore, it is of interest to evaluate the effectiveness of selected nursing interventions in improving self-care and quality of life
among Indian women with AUB at a maternity tertiary care centre in Chennai using a quasi-experimental non-randomized control group
design. Nursing interventions, including education on symptom management, lifestyle modifications and personalised support, significantly
improved self-care and quality of life in the experimental group. A comparison of pre-test and post-test scores confirmed the
effectiveness of these interventions with demographic factors influencing patient outcomes. Thus, the importance of structured nursing
interventions in enhancing symptom management and overall well-being in women with abnormal uterine bleeding is reported.
