FSRH | Problematic bleeding with hormonal contraception

This is an updated guideline from the FSRH on how to investigate and manage women with abnormal bleeding on contraception. I don’t think there is much new here, but there are a couple of excellent flow charts which summarise the management.

One nice point is that it gives advice that women don’t all need to be investigated if the bleeding is short lived and in the first 3m of use of the method.

There is also a really nice table that outlines different bleeding patterns that can occur with different contraceptive methods. I haven’t attached that, but it is a really useful table to reference.

"Going from being a trainee to being a GP can be a really difficult transition. Taking on the administration associated with things like locum work can make that even more difficult.

Ali from LocumDeck showed me how to use their tool to simplify and automate the invoicing and locum form process to save me time and energy. With the free one-year membership for new GPs this was a real no-brainer that meant I could spend more time on the things that really matter, and less time filling in paperwork.

I can't thank Ali enough for her help and the time she has saved me."
