Because it's hers, because it's a pelvic "place holder", because why take out an organ just because it's "paused", because it is the seat of, for many women, what it is to be a woman, because it's part of her and she has an identification with it, and because if it's not diseased why risk surgery. Really, for the men out there, would you be as eager to have your testicles removed because you weren't producing sperm anymore and there was a cyst on one--especially if a female doctor said to you--"Well, they're not useful anymore, so let's just chop them off" ?

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.
