The obvious conclusion is that you were not able to think of anything that an NP could not master about IUDs, and therefore didn't want to answer this question directly. Of course, if that inference is incorrect, you can easily correct it by telling us precisely what an NP is incapable of learning about IUDs. But I'll bet you won't.

The honorable thing to do would be to admit that you're wrong, rather than concocting excuses not to respond to people who challenge your ill-thought-out opinions.

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.
