Good choice, however she has a forty plus son who functions at 3-4 year old level, for whom she is primary caregiver, hx which I didn't give. Though, absent atypia demonstrated on a very thorough multiple pass curettage, assessed hyspteroscopically pre and post curettage, I would think progesterone reasonable under other circumstances as well.

She stopped the P at the time of the WHI out of concern re the prempro reports. Unfortunately, she kept on with E alone these last several years.

At hysto d&c a benign endocx polyp was removed, an abundant amount of endometrial tissue was sampled, with a complex adenomatous hyperplasia, w/o atypia being read on final path.

I propose to treat for endometrial regression, with sustained progesteron alone, and interval followup sampling. Any comments re choice of P, either micronized or synthetic (?Megace?) and dosage?

Thanks,

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.
