[quote=Anonymous]+1,000 to getting it addressed. Yes, it's possible that she's malingering. But it's possible that (1) she could develop a better toolkit for managing her periods; (2) she could benefit from BCP; (3) she has endo; or (4) other. In all of these cases, getting to a better solution sooner is advantageous. There's no case where "wait and see" is better. Until you get an appt, she should absolutely keep a diary of symptoms, level of pain, steps taken, etc. I have found out after the fact that young women in my office routinely were either coming in but unable to function or were missing work 2 days a month--basically a 10% loss of work for something that likely can and should be addressed not just better function now, but potentially to protect future functionality and fertility.[/quote]
