Well Dan, I had just tried to emphasize the hypoestrogenic state of lactating women and the case's similarity in the insertion to a lactating woman in resembling the vulnerability of the uteri of lactating women in the quoted literature. So I do not have the color doppler data of this case or the 6 week post partum uteri in general. Thank you.

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.
