Treatment or management of dysfunctional uterine bleeding

Reference no: EM133726785

Case: A 29-year-old patient presents in the clinic with bleeding in between menses. The onset of menarche was age 14 and she has had regular monthly menses. For the past 2 months, she has been spotting between menses. She is not on any hormonal birth control, and she uses condoms occasionally to prevent pregnancy and STIs. She is currently with a new partner of 6 months, and she hasn't been tested for STIs with this partner. She is in the clinic because she is concerned about why she has been spotting in between menses. She is considering possibly regulating her menses. Upon history taking and physical exam, you do not notice anything abnormal. You suspect this is a case of dysfunctional uterine bleeding.

Based on your working diagnosis, patient's HPI, and your physical assessment, create a 3- to 5- minute video and a 2- to 4-page write-up discussing the following information:

Definition of DUB/AUB: What is this condition? Why is this important to address?

Prevalence and risk factorsDUB/AUB can be a risk of developing what types of health complications?

PresentationPathophysiologyPhysical assessment and testing to confirm diagnosis

Provide at least one differential diagnosis and an exam and/or lab test to rule out thisdiagnosis.

If a patient is hesitant about taking medication or intervening now, how long can she continue to "watchfully observe" her situation before an intervention must occur?

Your video can be informative while your write-up will be more detailed. Be creative with the video. There are many ways to complete this portion of the assignment.

Below are some examples of potential ideas to help you brainstorm:

Create an explainer video with animations and voiceover using Biteable, Canva, Powtoon, Animaker, or any other software platform.

Create a voiceover PowerPoint presentation or use Panopto to record your screen while you present your slides and your narration.

Your write-up and your video must include at least two scholarly sources that are not from your textbook nor any standard government or medical websites.

Scholarly sources must be peer-reviewed articles. Do not write this paper in a SOAP format. You don't need to rewrite the prompt in your paper.
