Amenorrhea: Diagnostic Challenges and Treatment Options
Amenorrhea, the absence of menstruation, can be a challenging condition to diagnose and manage due to its diverse underlying causes. It is classified into primary amenorrhea, when menstruation has not started by age 15, and secondary amenorrhea, the cessation of menstruation in a woman who previously had regular cycles. Diagnosing amenorrhea requires a thorough evaluation, including a detailed medical history, physical examination, and appropriate laboratory tests to rule out conditions such as polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), thyroid dysfunction, hyperprolactinemia, or structural abnormalities of the reproductive system.

Massive Transfusion Protocol
Massive Transfusion Protocol (MTP) is a standardized medical procedure activated in cases of severe hemorrhage, typically involving the rapid administration of large volumes of blood products. The goal is to restore circulating volume, maintain hemostasis, and prevent the lethal triad of hypothermia, acidosis, and coagulopathy. MTP usually involves a balanced ratio of packed red blood cells, plasma, and platelets, often in a 1:1:1 ratio. Early activation and coordination among trauma teams, laboratory services, and blood banks are essential for its success.
