54 YO P2002, LMP May 08, came in with menopausal symptoms. She say her internist (next door to me) in May, and had a normal exam, pap, mammogram, etc. A few weeks later, she was symptomatic and was begun on a low dose of compounded estrogen/progestin. She has been on this around 2 weeks, and isn't much better.

She came for consultation about HRT, gladly given, and her medicine was adjusted.

Other than a full history, would you necessarily examine her?

If so, why?

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.
