摘要
A 13-year-old girl with a family history of epistaxis presented with pubertal menorrhagia necessitating multiple blood transfusions. Her coagulation profile confirmed the diagnosis of Von Willebrand disease. The menorrhagia was controlled by cyclical use of oestrogen progestogen combination drugs. The important clinical implication of this case is that the patient with adolescent menorrhagia may have an underlying coagulation disorder, which can successfully be managed by hormones.
