Gynaecology

/ˌɡɪnɪˈkɑlədʒi/ noun

Definition

The medical specialty that studies and treats diseases and conditions of the female reproductive system.

Etymology

From Greek 'gyne' (woman) and 'logos' (study or science), literally meaning 'study of women,' referring specifically to the medical field focused on women's reproductive health.

Kelly Says

Gynaecology didn't become a real medical specialty until the 1800s, which is wild considering that half the population has been giving birth since humanity began—for most of history, childbirth was handled by midwives, not doctors.
