There were 2 studies by Johnson out of Hopkins in the 60's and 70's that showed the same thing using Delalutin. Nobody ever jumped on that. Why the big deal now??

Wellllllll... I don't want to get cantankerous, but on this very list, maybe a couple of years ago, people almost unanimously ROUNDLY CONDEMNED progesterone as worthless in prematurity. So, if the doctors don't believe it works, then nobody will jump on it, right? Because nobody will use it (or those that do will be condemned and face some liability/vulnerability).

So what's the problem?

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.
