With sonohysterograpy normal, what i do? Biopsy or just > >believe in sonohysterograpy? --Is this patient postmenopausal? Can see this thickness in proliferative phase of normal premenopausal patient. Would need to evaluate in light of clinical context. But if in doubt, would biopsy prior to surgery. (I am supposing that you mean TVH or TAH, not TRH.) Michael J. Wolpmann, M.D. If i prefer to control by another sonohysterograpy and not biopsy, what is the god interval time for the next sono exam?

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.
