Menstrual Irregularities

Description

This course is structured into one comprehensive unit that covers three key menstrual irregularities:

Heavy Menstrual Bleeding: Participants will explore the PALM-COEIN classification, which helps diagnose causes of abnormal uterine bleeding, from polyps and adenomyosis to coagulopathies and iatrogenic factors. Management strategies include pharmaceutical options like NSAIDs and hormonal therapies​.

Dysmenorrhea: This section distinguishes between primary and secondary dysmenorrhea. Primary dysmenorrhea is managed with NSAIDs and hormonal contraceptives, while secondary dysmenorrhea may indicate underlying conditions like endometriosis.

Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD): Participants will learn diagnostic criteria and treatment options for PMDD, including SSRIs, hormonal treatments, and lifestyle changes​

This course provides essential knowledge for healthcare professionals to effectively diagnose and treat menstrual disorders in clinical practice.
