Hi, US approximation into proliferative, mid-cycle and secretory phases of endometrium is about as fine as it gets right now.

Luteal phase defects in the sense of menses too soon after ovulation yes, but better done with ovulation kit. Anovulatory cycle can be picked up well by US in mid-luteal phase. Phase disturbance between stroma and glands obviously cannot, nor can progesterone deficiency.

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.
