"A rose by any other name doth smell as sweet" to quote the English bard. Just because it is called decidua doesn't mean that it is not endometrium in another doublet and hose. (A translation is available for those who need it!). Do you study Shakespeare in France or only Robespierre? Sorry it's a terrible pun. stray

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.
