A 12-year-old girl is brought to the physician by her mother because of heavy vaginal bleeding since her first menstrual period began 1 week ago. She has to change sanitary pads every 2 hours, and her mother is concerned that this is not normal. Her blood pressure is 80/60 mm Hg, and pulse is 110/min. Breast and axillary and pubic hair development are Tanner stage 4. Pelvic examination shows normal external genitalia, a small normal-appearing cervix, and a small uterus. Her hemoglobin level is 7 g/dL.
