Mashup Score: 6Management of Abnormal Uterine Bleeding on Anticoagulation: The Patient-Clinician Perspective - 10 day(s) ago
Bleeding is a well-recognized side effect of anticoagulant therapy, which is used to treat venous thromboembolism (VTE) in individuals of all ages, including those of female sex, who commonly experience VTE as a complication of hormonal therapies and/or pregnancy.
