You can expect to see up to 2-3% annual resolution of POF in younger women. Resolution may follow a period of HRT or BCP's. You did not mention whether this patient had a normal chromosome analysis. The presence of antiovarian antibodies may select a population more likely to have spontaneous resolution. Some of these patients see a resolution of POF with a burst course of Medrol. We have seen a few who have normalized FSH levels and undergone ovulation induction, yet no pregnancies yet in those who have been so treated.

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.
