Gynecologic care of adolescents presents a challenge under the best of circumstances, but when the patient has significant medical processes that interact with the process of puberty, the care of these patients may become extremely difficult. A review of the more common medical illnesses of adolescents and the interaction on the events of puberty and normal menstrual function is presented with emphasis on contraception and future fertility. Although many of the contraceptive options present a possible increased risk to these patients, it must be kept in mind that these adolescent patients will develop emotionally and become sexually active at some point in their lives, and the potential risk of the resultant pregnancy must be weighed carefully. The various options of management for gynecologic problems are discussed.
