Dear Dr. Wooley, I come unencumbered with multiple institution RCTs but my experience in Los Angeles' large Hispanic population is this: Many of our young women have a diet very low in calcium. In this group one will see lots of stretch marks. Those women uncounceled about the roll calcium ,Vitimin E,and vitaminC, will have very friable tissue. Nothing seems to prevent tears in this group. But if one can get them to add these nutrients to their diet in sufficient quantities with a subsequent pregnancy she will be more likely to deliver over an intact perineum. Now of course, part of the reason is multiparity. But IMHO they will have a nasty tear again if one doesn't get them to alter(supplement) theirdiet. Tonya Brooks Robert J Woolley wrote:

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.
