If she is motivated to the major benefit available to her by HRT, she might well benefit from SSRI therapy with subsequent tolerance of HRT with continuous MPA 2.5 mg and conjugated estrogen 0.625 mg. If she is so motivated, this might lead to new found will, augmented by the SSRI, to address smoking cessation in a group therapy setting. -- Zach Newton Z.B.

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.
