I am having a senior moment here--isn't Depo-Provera OK with the history of PTE? Now, I know what the PDR says, but isn't reality that Depo is OK, or am I being forgetful?

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
