OB/GYN Websites for Physicians, Patients

Seldom do you find that you need to visit only one website for a compendium of worthwhile information from generalists and specialists. Other websites in obstetrics and gynecology are most helpful, but, Click 1, OBGYN.net (www.obgyn.net), is a complete website that covers almost every aspect of women's health, with physician review of content.

The site, unlike many designed for both patients and professionals, covers both points of view without slighting either. Topics include chronic pelvic pain, endometriosis, fetal monitoring, hysteroscopy and alternatives, the image library, infertility, laparoscopy and hysteroscopy, menopause/perimenopause, osteoporosis, pregnancy and birth, ultrasound, and young women.

The website features "OB/GYN Gateways", a guide to the best OB/GYN sites, including those published by academic departments.

This is the website that gives you scientific information about obstetrics. Previously, it was impossible to find a single website in obstetrics that was really designed for physicians. Go to the obstetrics links listed on the "Gateways" page.
