The authors report use of intravenous (IV) tissue plasminogen activator (TPA) to treat acute anterior wall myocardial infarction in a forty-two-year-old woman during the active menstrual period. The patient received the TPA with the front-loading system with excellent result. Hemoglobin remained unchanged. This case demon strates that TPA infusion can be used in a menstruating woman without causing a dangerous hemorrhage.
