OsteoporosisFrom: ainsron@msn.comTue Apr 24 11:24:10 2001
In a 48 y.o female, premenopausal woman who is on chronic steroids after a renal transplant, with documented osteoporosis, would anyone place this type of patient on HRT as well as fosomax? I'm seeing such a patient now who was started three years ago on Prempro+ 0.3mg of Premarin by her GP and its hard for me to see the rationale behind it. Her cycles have continued to be regular, although over the last six months she is every 3-6 weeks, rather than the 4 week cycles she used to have. She is probably beginning menopause now, so I doubt I'll discontinue HRT, but under those circumstances, would anyone have even started it?

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.
