TL;DR: A contemporary review of the available evidence concerning several common disorders seen by women’s health care providers is presented, in the goal that this text may serve as a reference for clinicians faced with gynecologic treatment dilemmas.
Abstract: Contraceptive medications commonly serve as therapy for gynecologic conditions other than pregnancy prevention. For the treating clinician, it is important to understand the data supporting the use of contraception for such indications. In some cases, research investigations have demonstrated clear benefits for using certain contraceptives for various gynecologic conditions. In others, only limited published research exists to guide treatment options or the use of a contraceptive for a particular disease remains unstudied. What follows is a contemporary review of the available evidence concerning several common disorders seen by women’s health care providers. In doing so, it is our goal that this text may serve as a reference for clinicians faced with gynecologic treatment dilemmas. As is appropriate in all medical fields, the use of contraceptives for gynecologic conditions should be as evidence based as possible.
