  What is Gynecology?
  Gynecology is a
  medical specialty that focuses on female reproductive health issues, such as
  the development, diagnosis, prevention, and treatment of illnesses and diseases
  that affect the female reproductive system. Obstetrics is responsible for the
  medical care of a woman and her child before, during, and after birth. Women go
  through a variety of reproductive events throughout their lives, including
  menarche, menstruation, pregnancy, maternity, and menopause. These
  developmental events in female reproduction cause more drastic physiological
  changes (e.g., menstrual bleeding, physiological changes in pregnancy,
  breastfeeding, menopausal hormone fluctuations), more significant psychological
  changes, and more complex psychosocial consequences for women than developmental
  events in male reproduction. Though most women respond successfully to these
  reproductive processes, they may become more vulnerable to psychological
  maladjustment in particular circumstances.
