The impact of pregnancy periods on these indicators were analyzed, and corresponding reference intervals were established.ResultsSignificant differences were observed among the non-pregnant group and the first trimester(6-8weeks), second trimester(24-28weeks), and third trimester(36-38weeks) groups for antithrombin (AT), protein S activity (PS Ac), free protein S (FPS), protein C (PC), D-Dimer, fibrin/fibrinogen degradation products (FDP), plasmin inhibitor (PI), plasminogen (PLG), von Willebrand factor activity (vWF:Ac), von Willebrand factor antigen (vWF:Ag), lupus anticoagulant. AT, PS Ac, and FPS showed a downward trend with increasing gestational period. PI was significantly increased in the first trimester.

Recognizing these bleedings, which impair the quality of life for women, is an essential role of pharmacists and could be crucial in preventing the risk of discontinuing anticoagulant treatment.MethodsWe conducted an anonymous survey from December 2023 to January 2024 among pharmacists in France to explore their experiences with patients on anticoagulants who presented at pharmacies with questions about AUB.ResultsOf the 115 respondents, only 9 (7.8%) pharmacists had been approached by patients with questions about AUB while on anticoagulants. These pharmacists reported a majority of cases in women of reproductive age, the drug the most frequently cited was rivaroxaban. No significant demographic differences were observed between the pharmacists who had faced these questions and those who had not. Additionally, 99 (86.1%) pharmacists considered that they did not have enough skills to adequately advise female patients about abnormal uterine/genital bleeding under anticoagulant therapy.ConclusionOur study showed that community pharmacists are not the primary healthcare contact for patients with AUB under anticoagulant therapy.
