Klein, MD: "Re: At the risk of re-igniting the Oprah discussion . . ." This A.M. a local talk radio host interviewed a "prominent" urologist from New York who reported that Viagra would work for females who lack libido since it would stimulate the cavernosum tissues in the female homologues of the male. He also seemed to say that a "normal" male wold have an erection for a longer time. Have we found an aphrodisiac finally? SIde effects will probably begin to show up soon as the general population starts taking this drug-but as gynecologists I think the onslaught hasn't begun- testosterone cream is out-Viagra is in!! Long live Pfizer.- Just some thoughts. Howard G. Gelfand, M.D. slugging away in the trenches in private practice ------------------ Reply Separator -------------------- Originally From: "Clifford J.

It seems that nitric oxide plays a role in our patients' lives, as well as those of their husbands/consorts/significant others. Should we prepare ourselves for another off-lable use in gynecology, a la terbutaline or misoprostol?

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.
