Abstract:
OBJECTIVE:To present an unusual side effect of therapy for adolescent menorrhagia, with commentary on management options. DESIGN:Case report. SETTING:Tertiary gynecologic center. PATIENT(S):A 13-year-old girl presenting with profuse uterine bleeding. INTERVENTION(S):Dysfunctional uterine bleeding was diagnosed, and pharmacologic therapy with a monophasic oral contraceptive (OC) pill was introduced. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S):A large decidual cast occurred during treatment. RESULT(S):After finishing therapy with OC followed by three cycles of cyclic progestogen, the patient experienced regular menses. CONCLUSION(S):A large decidual cast may occur during treatment of adolescent menorrhagia with OCs; patients should be informed about this possibility, to reduce stress connected with the appearance of this side effect.
