Resumo(s)
The human endometrium is a unique tissue capable of repeated degradation, loss and self-repair in
response to fluctuating levels of sex steroids, in a tightly regulated process. It takes place hundreds of
times in a woman’s lifetime, manifesting as vaginal expulsion of blood mixed with cellular debris for a
period of several days. The aim of this work is to present a case of en bloc endometrial desquamation in a
teenage patient using combined oral contraception. Several mechanisms are proposed, although further
studies are needed to better understand this extremely rare phenomenon.
