Obstetrics
is a branch of medicine focused on pregnancy, childbirth, and the postpartum period. Obstetricians are healthcare professionals who specialize in providing care and medical supervision to pregnant women, ensuring the well-being of both the mother and the developing fetus. This includes monitoring the pregnancy’s progress, conducting prenatal tests and ultrasounds, managing any complications that may arise, and guiding the mother through labor and delivery. Obstetric care plays a crucial role in ensuring safe and healthy pregnancies, reducing the risk of complications, and promoting the overall health of mothers and newborns during the childbirth journey.
