Right. But the question is still pending. Anyway I had a patient like that last year. But it was after a late miscarriage. I did a laparotomic myomectomy and told her not to be pregnant for at least 6 months. She came, pregnant, 6 months exactly after the operation.

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.
