Abstract:
Gynecologic problems are the most common reason adolescent girls see physicians. Therefore, physicians who see teenagers need to be prepared to deal with common gynecologic problems in this population, such as amenorrhea, dysmenorrhea, abnormal vaginal bleeding, contraception, and sexually transmitted disease. This article will provide the primary care physician with information on these issues and advice on performing the gynecologic evaluation of the adolescent patient.
