Current Evaluation of Amenorrhea and Oligomenorrhoea
The evaluation of amenorrhea (absence of menstruation) and oligomenorrhea (infrequent menstruation) involves a thorough assessment of a woman's medical history, physical examination, and targeted laboratory tests. The evaluation aims to identify potential underlying causes, such as hormonal imbalances, polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), thyroid disorders, or anatomical abnormalities. Diagnostic approaches may include hormonal assays, pelvic ultrasound, and sometimes MRI to assess the reproductive organs. Early identification and treatment of the underlying cause are essential to restore normal menstrual function and address any associated health risks.

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.
