Scenario 10
A 25-year-old woman with Down’s syndrome attends the
clinic accompanied by her mother. She has menorrhagia and copes badly with the
hygiene aspects. The menorrhagia is bad enough for her now to be on treatment
for iron-deficiency anaemia. She has tried all the standard medical methods. To
complicate the problem, she has become close friends with a young man she has
met at College, to which she travels independently each weekday. Her mother
fears that she may already be involved in sexual activity and cannot get an
accurate answer from her about it. The mother is keen for her to have
hysterectomy to deal with both problems. If you agree that the surgery is
appropriate, who can give consent?
