When I spoke to him today, he planned to continue until progesterone is over 25. She has had spotting through the pregnancy and the sonos done by the REI showed a small clot that was not enlarging. When I saw her two days ago for her first OB visit, she was still spotting, a limited sono that I performed showed a low-laying placenta. A complete sono today confirmed a low-laying placenta, no previa, no evidence of abruption and growth consistent with her dates.

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.
