Abstract:
An 18-year-old woman presented to the clinic with painless bleeding of her gums upon brushing her
teeth. The bleeding stopped spontaneously, and there was no other bleeding tendency. On further
questioning, the patient had irregular menses and was taking the oral contraceptive pills (OCP)
Diane-35ED® to regulate her menses. She had been on this medication for four months. She was not
on any other medication and had no chronic illness.
