History

Prior to the 18th century, caring for pregnant women in Europe was confined exclusively to women, and rigorously excluded men. The expectant mother would invite close female friends and family members to her home to keep her company.[8] Skilled midwives managed all aspects of the labour and delivery. The presence of physicians and surgeons was very rare and only occurred once a serious complication had taken place and the midwife had exhausted all measures to manage the complication. Calling a surgeon was very much a last resort and having men deliver women in this era whatsoever was seen as offending female modesty.[9][10

Revised
Obstetrics and gynecology medically and surgically main concern is the care of women from pregnancy until after delivery and with the diagnosis and treatment of disorders of the female reproductive tract. The prenatal care and instruction of pregnant mothers to reduce birth defects and problem deliveries was introduced about 1900 and was thereafter rapidly adopted throughout the world. The earliest birth attendants were women. The first successful caesarean section in the British Isles was performed by an Irish midwife, Mary Donally, in 1738. Obstetrix was the Latin word for midwife which came from the phrase ("To Stand Before") because the attendant stood in front of the women to receive the baby. Medical schools changed it's name from "midwifery" to "obstetrics" when they taught the subject in medical school only in the 20th century. A gynecologist is a surgeon and usually a Medical Doctor who specializes in diseases of the female genital tract and women's health. This means diseases of the uterus, Fallopian tubes, ovaries, cervix, vagina, and vulva. The separate specialty of gynecology from obstetrics had become fairly well established by 1880; its union with the specialty of obstetrics, arising from an overlap of natural concerns, began late in the century and has continued to the present day.
