Initial Mental Health Evaluation of Internationally Adopted Youth: Goals and Timing Considerations

Rowena Ng, Jennifer Tang and Maria Kroupina

Robert L Reid and Bryden A Magee

Article Type: Review Article | First Published: June 04, 2016

When approaching a female patient with concerns about her reproductive health, it is important to first consider how a given hormonal test will guide diagnosis, impact treatment or define prognosis.
