Learning Objectives
Differentiate expected bleeding changes associated with hormonal contraception from patterns that warrant further investigation.
Assess bleeding patterns in the context of contraceptive method, duration of use, pregnancy risk, clinical history, and other potential causes.
Apply evidence-based strategies to manage persistent or bothersome unscheduled bleeding, including counselling, treatment modification, further investigation, and contraceptive change when appropriate.
