Corona stenting in a patient menorrhagia: use of a gonadotrophin releasing hormone agonist to facilitate anticoagulation

We report a case with menorrhagia due to uterine fibroids who was admitted following an episode of unstable angina. Her coronary angiogram showed a tight proximal left anterior descending artery lesion for which stenting was deemed necessary. She was successfully anticoagulated in spite of her menorrhagia under cover of a gonadotrophin hormone releasing agonist; goserilin.
