The midwife that I worked with has had pretty good success with keeping women intact with no episiotomies. It is my understanding that some cultures sew back up to a tiny hole just small enough for menstruation, and urination, while others just slice the little girls up and leave them to heal up on their own.

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.
