ABOUT THIS PODCAST
Women experience changes in thrombotic and bleeding risk across every stage of life, yet these considerations are often underrecognized in antithrombotic management. This episode explores how antithrombotic stewardship can optimize care from menstruation through menopause, highlighting practical strategies for managing heavy menstrual bleeding, contraception, pregnancy considerations, perimenopause, and hormone therapy while balancing thrombosis and bleeding risks. Listeners will gain evidence-based approaches to individualized patient care, improve interdisciplinary collaboration, and identify stewardship opportunities to enhance safety, outcomes, and health equity for patients receiving anticoagulant and antithrombotic therapy.
