hi Try this technique, it is useful in deciding between endometrial hyperplasia and polyps if saline-hysterosonography is not available.

Drop your persistence to zero and using a bi-manual palpation, watch the endometrium slide on both sides of the polyp. With hyperplasia there is only one sliding surface.

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.
