Notes

"This pamphlet was prepared by the Diethylstilbestrol Adenosis (DESAD) Project, which was funded by the Division of Cancer Control and Rehabilitation, National Cancer Institute, in 1974, to study the frequency and natural history of genital tract changes in women exposed prenatally to diethylstilbestrol (DES). The purpose of this brochure is to update the medical community with current information on the health status of DES-exposed persons, methods available for their identification, and plans for continuing examination and management."--provided by publisher.
