Secondary amenorrhea - blueberry2k - ArchivalUser - 06-03-2009

order of test
1.Preg test
2. TSH
3. prolaction
4. Progesteron challenge test

IS this order correct? UW says it differently, After Preg test , do PCT, then the others

Someone please clarify

Thanks

after preg test....if non pregnant...progesterone challenge is given..if she bleeds..fine..otherwise go ahead with ruling out thyroid, etc probs by tsh, prolactin etc....this is the order in which it is done in practice too...
