Re: AmenorrheaFrom: Raymond Stephen (stephen.raymond@dhhs.tas.gov.au)Mon Jun 25 18:03:44 2007
Menopause - because of the high FSH & LH. PCO will never give you that high an LH, and her FSH would be normal, unless you took it in the menstrual phase, at which time the LH would be low anyway. Why did you think of chromosomes? Steve -----Original Message----- From: ob-gyn-l@obgyn.net [mailto:ob-gyn-l@obgyn.net] On Behalf Of Garry E. Siegel, M.D. Sent: Tuesday, 26 June 2007 6:32 AM To: Multiple recipients of list OB-GYN-L Subject: Gyn: Amenorrhea 39 YO Black P0121 seen today for an annual examination. She has been amenorrheic for around 10 years. She is obese, BMI 39.2, and has hypertension and diabetes, both treated. Recent labs: FSH 49, LH 28, TSH, Prolactin normal, 17 OHP normal. Is her diagnosis premature menopause, versus a PCO pattern? Does she need chromosomes done? Garry

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.
