That would be my question: Did she TELL the doc she hadn't had a period in 6-7 months? Was she normally oligomenorrheic? I would generally initiate some sort of workup in a pt with this hx, and #1 on the list would be an HCG.

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.
