Abstract/OtherAbstract:
The objective of the study was to determine the extent of complementary and alternative medicine use and the disclosure of that use by patients seeing an obstetrician/gynaecologist. Data from the National Health Interview Survey of the USA 2007 were reviewed. Of the 2,673 women seeing an obstetrician/gynaecologist 956 (35.8%) used at least one form of CAM. However, only 51.8% of the women using CAM disclosed that use to their physician.
