Re: GYN: Endometrial Cells on Menopausal PapFrom: ainsron@msn.comWed Jan 19 11:37:57 2000
I would do a vaginal ultrasound and biopsy with a pipelle if thickened endometrium (>5 mm). If non-diagnostic, I would do a hysteroscopy. Another option (if money is a major concern) would be to give 10-12 days of provera, if no withdrawal bleed, estrogen primed endometrium would be pretty much ruled out and proliferative or hyperplastic endometrium would be unlikely, but I don't think it would completely rule out a polyp. If she withdraws, I would go back to plan A, sono and bx.

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.
