Does menstrual cycle dictate supply and why is it important for us to gather menstrual history?
Back
Commit #193361No, both ECPs can be supplied regardless of menstrual cycle.
It is important to gather because: If pt has had previous UPSI (unprotected sexual intercourse) in menstrual cycle, their menstrual period is late or thair last period was lighter than usual, there is a risk of pre-existing pregnancy.
Despite the ECP being okay to use in pregnancy, supplying without checking this ^ risk the patient delaying termination of possible pregnancy.
Gathering cycle information to determine ovulation during UPSI is only useful if suspected pregnancy, due to difficulty to predict.
