cos I thought about p/n methods like bf/ neonatal azt and to look for chorioamnionitis

regarding colposcopy and suggested cx ca the q asked justify any procedures needed to establish diagnosis?r u supposed to mention fbc/ivu/uss/mri/sigmoidoscopy etc

are u not supposed to write re colposcopy and various features and excision rx to establish diagnosis?

re initial assessment in endometrioma is it not history/examination/mri/laparoscopy/etc
