Abstract

In an illustrative embodiment, methods and systems for treating uterine bleeding include applying, at least every other day in which a subject exhibits or is expected to exhibit menstrual bleeding, neurostimulation therapy in one or more sessions, each session having a duration of at least five minutes, the neurostimulation therapy including applying electrical neurostimulation or mechanical neurostimulation to directly and/or indirectly activate one or more neural targets, the one or more neural targets including a trigeminal cervical complex and/or vagal efferent fibers. The neurostimulation therapy may be configured to enhance platelet function of the subject, thereby reducing a total volume of blood loss over a course of the menstrual bleeding.
