If she does not tolerate this, going to progestin every three months with annual sampling of endometrium would be a good alternative. I recently saw a 68 year old who had a endometrium with complex hyperplasia with atypia with an endometrial stripe of 4 mm., thus I no longer feel confident that ultrasound for endometrial thickness tells me what I need to know re the status of the endometrium. -- Gerald P.

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.
