Primary Amenorrhea

  • Snapshot
    • A 17-year-old female presents to the pediatrician with a concern of not yet beginning menses. Her friends in high school have already begun menses a few years ago, and this brings the patient great distress. She reports being sexually active and uses condomns consistently. She does not use any other form of contraception. She denies pelvic pain. On physical exam, there is normal breast development; however, her uterus is not palpable. This is confirmed by pelvic ultrasound. Karyotype returns as 46, XX and serum testosterone level is appropriate for a female. (Müllerian agenesis)
