When Should a Gynecologist Consider a PFA 100 Test?
A gynecologist should consider a PFA 100 test in several scenarios:
Patients with unexplained menorrhagia or other bleeding disorders Pre-operative evaluation for patients scheduled for major gynecological surgery Women with a family history of bleeding disorders Patients on medications known to affect platelet function
Evaluating platelet function can help tailor treatment plans and reduce the risk of surgical complications.
