This is an accepted indication for hysterectomy. Look at the possibilities. If you have or develop cancer and no one can find it until too late, then you should have had the hysterectomy. On the other hand if you do have it and die of complications then you shouldn't have had it. This is one of those situations where the answer is only known in retrospect. RDB R.

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.
