This webinar will explore the causes of heavy menstrual bleeding, including underlying bleeding disorders such as hemophilia and von Willebrand disease. Participants will review common treatment approaches for managing heavy menstrual bleeding and associated symptoms, including hormonal therapies, factor and non-factor therapies, tranexamic acid, aminocaproic acid, and iron supplementation. The webinar will also provide practical guidance to support the ongoing management of patients with heavy menstrual bleeding, including recognizing when specialty care is warranted.
