John, First case: I am using a small glove, like size 6, and put a purse string suture around the wrist end. This saves the cost of the commercially available bags. I usually just make the skin incision large enough to "pop" out the glove with contents.

Second case: Yes, I have had exactly this situation. I established that the pain was identical whether coitus accompanied the orgasm or not. Pain resolved with hysterectomy. I don't remember now if the path report documented adenomyosis or not. I would assume the diagnosis would be that or pelvic congestion.

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.
