Program Summary
Obstetrics and Gynaecology is a medical specialty that focuses on the health of the female reproductive system, including pregnancy, childbirth, and disorders affecting the reproductive organs. The course combines theoretical knowledge with practical training to equip students with the skills needed to manage pregnancy, labor, and postpartum care, as well as diagnose and treat conditions related to the uterus, ovaries, and hormonal balance.
Students learn about prenatal care, fetal development, and complications during pregnancy, alongside surgical and non-surgical treatments for gynaecological conditions like fibroids, endometriosis, and infertility. The course covers areas such as reproductive endocrinology, family planning, oncology, and minimally invasive surgical techniques. Training involves clinical rotations, hands-on experience in labor wards, and exposure to surgical procedures.
Obstetrics and Gynaecology requires strong diagnostic skills, empathy, and the ability to work under pressure, especially in emergencies like obstetric hemorrhage or preeclampsia. It is a dynamic field that integrates advancements in medicine and technology, allowing specialists to improve maternal and reproductive health outcomes.
