But then you're talking treatment, not prophylaxis. If, on the basis of a normal bone density, you would decide against combined estrogen/Fosamax, then I take it you are against using them together preventatively, is that correct? ---------------------------------------------------------------------------

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.
