Gynecology, Obstetrics and Womens Health

Gynecology and Obstetrics

Gynecology is the branch of medical science focused on the health of the female reproductive system and overall reproductive health. It involves the study of the uterus and other female genital organs. Gynecology and obstetrics are closely related fields that address the entire female reproductive system. While obstetrics focuses specifically on pregnancy, childbirth, and pregnancy-related complications, gynecology covers the care of women who are not pregnant, including adolescent girls and those who have reached puberty. Gynecologists treat conditions related to the uterus, fallopian tubes, ovaries, and other reproductive organs, whereas obstetricians specialize in the care of pregnant women, childbirth, and postpartum care.
