Oral Contraceptives vs First Trimester Bleeding

The Oral Contraceptives app features a database of over 200 FDA-approved name brand and generic oral contraceptives available in the United States. The app includes a browsable index of birth control pills that allows physicians, nurses and family planning professionals to quickly reference essential drug information and identify equivalent alternative brands. Physicians can also conveniently filter drugs by estrogen and progestin dosage and find specialized formulations by feature. Need to find all the available estrophasic oral contraceptives? Get info on the only chewable birth control pill? This app makes it easy! Emergency contraceptives are also covered and a handy contraceptive efficacy chart is also available for reference. Note that this application is provided for informational purposes only and is not intended as a substitute for professional medical advice. Always consult with a physician.

The First Trimester Bleeding app is for CLINICIANS (not the lay public). It helps a clinician move through the complex evaluation protocols for women early in pregnancy suffering bleeding and pain. The app also reviews guidance on management of early pregnancy loss and ectopic pregnancy. The app answers questions such as: - what information and investigations do I need for a woman with early pregnancy bleeding? - how do I distinguish pregnancies which are viable, non-viable, and of uncertain viability? - what do I do if no pregnancy can be found inside or outside the uterus on ultrasonography (Pregn Unknown Location)? - when do I need serial ß-hCG's and when do I need serial sonograms? - for early pregnancy loss, what are my treatment options? - how do I use Misoprostol for a woman electing medical management of incomplete SAB? All information is based upon guidance in the medical literature and expert medical authorities. A great deal of materials are shared and adapted with permission from the Reproductive Health Access Project (thanks!). The app offers several direct external links to their materials for more information. The app is intended for family physicians, obstetricians, midwives, ER and urgent care personnel, and trainees like residents and medical students, and anyone involved in the care of early pregnancy. As educators and clinicians, we are interested in feedback and would be grateful for guidance on improving the tool.
