KATHMANDU, NEPAL – Limbu, a 17-year-old student at British Gurkha
College, began experiencing heavy vaginal bleeding just as classes began
one morning in April.
She rushed to a pharmacy near her school in Kathmandu, Nepal’s capital,
with her friend Gurung, 18.
The young women declined to publish their first names to avoid stigma
for speaking openly about their sexual activities.
The pharmacist told Limbu he was unable to help her and advised her to
go to the nearby Tribhuvan University Teaching Hospital, she says.
There, Limbu was treated for dehydration, given a blood transfusion to
replace lost blood, and kept under observation for several hours, she
says. The doctor told her the bleeding was most likely caused by her
excessive use of the emergency contraception pill. Diagnosing her as
anemic, the doctor also gave her iron supplements for free.
Limbu has not had a recurrence of bleeding or any other health
complications since her treatment, she says.
Limbu first had intercourse at age 15, she says. She has since had many
sexual partners and is currently having sex with three boys.
