Maternal contractions during childbirth put considerable stress on a baby's heart. Using a new ultrasound technique, researchers were able to predict complications necessitating C-section.
A new method for predicting the risks of severe injuries during childbirth could improve care and reduce long-term complications for women.
Pinar Bor is a clinical professor of gynecology at the Department of Clinical Medicine at Aarhus University, where she conducts research aimed at improving the quality of life for women suffering from prolapse and urinary incontinence - conditions that often arise after childbirth and can have long-term consequences.
Infection with the human papillomavirus (HPV) is the most common cause for cervical cancers. Now, researchers have developed a promising therapeutic vaccine against precancerous lesions.
Ovarian cancer is common and often only detected by chance. A newly developed AI-based model could help differentiate between benign and malignant ovarian lesions.
More than half of pregnant women in the UK with gestational diabetes are unaware of their condition due to insufficient diagnostics, a study suggests. This could lead to unneccessary complications.
When women are pregnant and nurse their babies, their bodies change to ensure the health of both mother and child. Researchers now surprisingly find that the intestine also changes completely.
The journey of a baby through the birth canal can be fraught with obstacles and risks. A new AI-based tool to evaluate the head position of the baby could lead to fewer childbirth complications.
Interdisciplinary collaboration between gynaecologists, radiologists, pathologists and breast care nurses following a palpation finding makes a decisive contribution to the success of further breast cancer treatment. This was the consensus among the speakers at the Annual Congress of the German Society of Senology in Dresden. The experts provided clear explanations of which imaging is best for…
Endometriosis can cause abdominal pain and cramping before, during and after menstruation, and may lead to infertility. Now, researchers identified promising approaches for better early diagnosis.
Women whose Fallopian tubes are removed during sterilization have only marginally more surgical complications than those whose tubes are simply cut, a study shows.
A surgical technique called total mesometrial resection (TMMR) is associated with better outcomes than current treatments. A new study shows a significantly lower risk of disease recurrence and death.
Pregnancy prevention apps, fertility-tracking wearables and more: Digital tools have expanded the range of contraceptive methods – but are rarely discussed at the GP's office, a new study shows.
A team comprising obstetricians, gynecologists, pediatricians, and biomedical engineers has found the key determinants for digital health solutions that support women from pre- to post-pregnancy.
Using lab-grown ‘mini-placentas’, researchers from the UK and Switzerland hope to get new insights on dangerous pregnancy complications, such as pre-eclampsia.
Researchers and clinicians at Washington University in St. Louis found a way to improve diagnostic accuracy of potentially cancerous lesions in the ovaries and adnexal regions, or the fallopian tubes.
Postpartum hemorrhage is a leading cause of maternal mortality at birth, especially after cesarean deliveries. Now, anesthesiologists propose two simple solutions to help prevent the severe bleeding.
When a woman becomes pregnant, sometimes her pre-existing rheumatoid arthritis will 'magically' go away. In others, the condition becomes even worse. Now, US researchers may have found an explanation.
New methods to predict outcomes for pregnancies where there are issues with poor growth of the baby inside the womb have been developed by a team of scientists.
