Obstetrics & Gynaecology

Obstetrics and gynecology (OB/GYN) is a medical specialty that focuses on the reproductive health of women. Obstetrics involves the care of women during pregnancy, childbirth, and the postpartum period, while gynecology focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of conditions that affect the female reproductive system, such as uterine fibroids, endometriosis, and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). OB/GYNs are trained to provide a wide range of services, including prenatal care, gynecologic exams and screenings, contraceptive counseling, and menopausal management. They also perform surgeries related to the female reproductive system, such as cesarean deliveries, hysterectomies, and laparoscopic procedures.
