,Consistent with the elimination of the warning, defendants' expert, Dr. A.F. Haney, Professor of Obstetrics and Gynecology at Duke University Medical Center, found "no scientific basis for limb reduction with exposure to progestins," such as Provera.Dr. Haney explained that early reports of an "association" between Provera and limb reduction defects were based on "very bad epidemiology."He concluded:

,,When careful analysis was performed, it became very obvious there was no scientific information whatsoever to support any association of limb reduction with progestins of any kind. . . . As a consequence, this patient and her family have been [misled] into thinking there is some potential association.It's certainly understandable for them [to] try and find a cause for their child's anomaly.The one thing that can clearly be said is that this is not related to the 10 days of Provera she took during [the] luteal phase of her conceptive cycle.
