Re: Breast cancer and Atrophic VaginitisFrom: Joanne Bulley, MD (islesannie@yahoo.com)Wed May 4 21:57:52 2005
I have a local oncologist who has a hissy fit over this issue. Right now I have a 46(ish) yo woman 6 years S/P estrogen receptor negative breast cancer (had 23 nodes positive) who has been told she should not use any estrogen ever - not even the vagifem ("because even some of that gets absorbed"). She and I have had a nice long talk about this and She and I agree whe should not have to give up sex - she very much misses it - and will probably go ahead with the Vagifem anywho - but it is a REAL pain that there are still so many oncologists and surgeons who are worse than the Spanish Inquisition about it!

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.
