Gynecologic Concerns in Puberty and Adolescence: Strategies for Pediatricians

With answers to primary care providers’ most pressing questions, gynecologist Sloane Berger-Chen, MD, delivers this information-packed talk on reproductive system care for pre-adult patients. Learn reasons that young teens benefit from a first gynecology visit years before guidelines call for a first Pap test, and hear expert guidance on investigating and managing such common problems as heavy menstrual bleeding, polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) and vaginitis – all of which require a different approach in pediatrics than they would in adult care. Berger-Chen also explains why specialists favor monophasic hormonal pills and presents a chart that clinicians can use to counsel patients seeking an IUD that meets their goals and preferences.
