Heavy menstrual bleeding — A guide for GPs

Heavy menstrual bleeding affects approximately one in four women of reproductive age, yet many patients remain undiagnosed, undertreated, or unaware that effective treatment options exist. In this free webinar, Dr Simone Gonzo explores the assessment and management of heavy menstrual bleeding in general practice. What you will learn Drawing on the Australian Heavy Menstrual Bleeding Clinical Care Standard, this session provides a structured approach to history-taking, investigation, medical management, and shared decision-making, including when to consider referral for intrauterine system insertion. Designed for busy GPs, the webinar provides practical strategies you can apply immediately in the consultation room to support women experiencing heavy menstrual bleeding. Delivered in collaboration with Bayer Australia^, this session will teach you how to: Evaluate treatment options for heavy menstrual bleeding from adolescence to menopause, including hormonal and non-hormonal treatments, procedural interventions, intrauterine systems and hysterectomy. Plan a counselling approach that supports shared decision-making between doctor and patient considering all treatment options for heavy menstrual bleeding. The webinar includes Q&A and case discussions. ^ This activity has been developed independently by HealthCert Education with the support of an unconditional educational grant from Bayer Australia.
