Goldman, M.D.: "Allergies and Endometriosis" I do know that endometrosis has much to do with inmunology, I mean, there are some anticuerps that are very high in this pathology. Thatīs why the DANAZOL, a drug that inhibits the inmunology response, goes well. iīll have to investigate much further whether it is also combinated with allergies.

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.
