Abstract

The article discusses the use of menstrual suppression to reduce intrauterine device expulsion in adolescents with inherited bleeding disorders. The study found that hormonal menstrual suppression was effective in preventing early device expulsion due to excessive bleeding. The research suggests that concurrent menstrual suppression for at least 30 days after insertion may enhance safety and minimize complications in this vulnerable population. The authors emphasize the importance of managing heavy menstrual bleeding in adolescents with inherited bleeding disorders to improve outcomes and reduce expulsion rates.
