Instructions

You are a medical student on placement in general practice. Your next patient is Keely Atherton, 19, a university student who has not had a period for ten weeks.

  1. Take a focused history

  • You do not need to summarise your findings to the examiner; summarise the history back to the patient before you finish
  • You do not need to examine the patient
  • You do not need to give a diagnosis or discuss management

ChoiceHub writes these stations itself, from the ground up, across a wide range of clinical topics. They are not official exam material, and no university has written, reviewed or endorsed them. “Recommended for” only suggests the year and exam format a station suits.
