For more than 50 years, our department has been acknowledged for its contributions to women’s health care— both in obstetrics and gynecology. Our mission has remained unchanged since the department’s founding in 1943. Daily we strive for excellence in patient care, teaching, and research. In the clinical care realm, we provide comprehensive services in dual arenas—a private practice through the UT Southwestern Medical Center University Hospitals and Clinics and a public practice at Parkland Health and Hospital System. This blend not only maximizes our services throughout different segments of the community in which we live and work, but also provides an invigorating environment for our students, residents, fellows, and faculty. On the educational front, our faculty members are recognized as the authors of three major OB/GYN textbooks—Williams Obstetrics, Williams Gynecology, and Essential Reproductive Medicine. They are also responsible for the largest obstetrics and gynecology training program in the nation, with a combined total of 100 available residency positions in Dallas and Austin.

Methods: This is a descriptive study with a qualitative approach. The study included 10 spouses of pregnant women attended to at Basic Health Units in the city of Juazeiro do Norte, Ceará, Brazil. Data was collected between September and October 2015, through a semi-structured interview and evaluated through the systematic technique of content analysis, and analyzed in light of the pertinent literature. Results: The majority of interviewees belonged to the age group between 24 and 29 years, attended high school and were married.

The aim of this systematic review will be to assess the sexual dysfunction and determine the relevant factors to sexual dysfunction during pregnancy and postpartum. Methods and analysis: All observational studies, including descriptive, descriptive-analytic, case-control, and cohort studies published between 1990 and 2019, will be included in the study. Review articles, case studies, case reports, letter to editors, pilot studies, and editorial will be excluded from the study. The search will be conducted in the Cochrane Central Register, MEDLINE, Google Scholar, EMBASE, ProQuest, Scopus, WOS, and CINAHL databases. Eligible studies should assess at least one of the sexual dysfunction symptoms in pregnant women orinthefirstyearpostpartum.Quality assessment of studies will be performed by two authors independently based on the NOS checklist. This checklist is designed to assess the quality of observational studies. Data will be analyzed using Stata software ver. 11. Considering that the index investigated in the present study will be the level of sexual disorder, standard error will be calculated for each study using binomial distribution. The heterogeneity level will be investigated using Cochran’sQstatisticandI2 index in a chi-square test at a significance level of 1.1.

Research Article Clinical Outcomes of Laparoscopic Repair of Paravaginal Defects Waleed Tawfik* Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Faculty of Medicine, Benha University, Benha, Egypt. *Corresponding author: Waleed Tawfik: Lecturer of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Faculty of Medicine, Benha University, Benha, Egypt. Citation: Tawfik W (2020) Clinical Outcomes of Laparoscopic Repair of Paravaginal Defects. Arch Women Heal Gyn: AWHG-103. Received Date: 31 March, 2020; Accepted Date: 03 April, 2020; Published Date: 08 April, 2020 Abstract In the era of minimally invasive surgeries, laparoscopic approach has been adopted in many surgical procedures as a successful alternative. Laparoscopic paravaginal repair is a good approach for surgical treatment of lateral type cystoceles. This prospective study was done to investigate whether laparoscopic paravaginal repair might be a reasonable alternative to open or vaginal routes in terms of success rate, operative and postoperative outcomes. Fifty patients with clinically diagnosed paravaginal defect were included in this study. The overall success rate in our study was 88 % after one year according to prolapse staging. This is nearly comparable to the results of most studies. Dividing the overall outcome into favorable and unfavorable, we reported that the unfavorable outcome was 22%. Unfavorable outcome includes cases of recurrence, persistent symptoms or appearance of new complaints. Conclusion: Although laparoscopic paravaginal repair offers an alternative method with shorter hospital stay, less postoperative pain and quicker recovery, but it still has its drawbacks. It needs long learning curve and has prolonged operative time.

SCOPE X Professional X Facility DESCRIPTION Transgender is a broad term that can be used to describe people whose gender identity is different from the gender they were thought to be when they were born. Gender dysphoria (GD) or gender identity disorder is defined as evidence of a strong and persistent cross-gender identification, which is the desire to be, or the insistence that one is of the other gender. Persons with this disorder experience a sense of discomfort and inappropriateness regarding their anatomic or genetic sexual characteristics. Individuals with GD have persistent feelings of gender discomfort and inappropriateness of their anatomical sex, strong and ongoing cross-gender identification, and a desire to live and be accepted as a member of the opposite sex. Gender Dysphoria (GD) is defined by the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders - Fifth Edition, DSM-5™ as a condition characterized by the "distress that may accompany the incongruence between one’s experienced or expressed gender and one’s assigned gender" also known as “natal gender”, which is the individual’s sex determined at birth.

18 Percent of Pregnant Women Drink Alcohol During Early
National Survey on Drug Use and Health The NSDUH Report Data Spotlight September 9, 2013 18 Percent of Pregnant VA60 Women Drink Alcohol during Early Pregnancy Women who drink alcohol while pregnant increase the risk that their infants will have physical, learning, and/or behavior problems, including Fetal Alcohol Spectrum Disorder (FASD).1 These problems are caused by alcohol and can be lifelong. Combined 2011 to 2012 data from the National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH) show that 8.5 percent of pregnant women aged 15 to 44 drank alcohol in the past month (Figure). Also, 2.7 percent binge drank.2 Among women aged 15 to 44 who were not pregnant, 55.5 percent drank alcohol in the past month, and 24.7 percent binge drank. Most alcohol use by pregnant women occurred during the first trimester. Alcohol use was lower during the second and third trimesters than during the first (4.2 and 3.7 percent vs. 17.9 percent). These findings suggest that many pregnant women are getting the message and not drinking alcohol. Alcohol can disrupt fetal development at Past Month Alcohol Use and Binge Alcohol Use among Pregnant Women Aged any stage during a pregnancy, even before a 15 to 44, Overall and by Trimester*: 2011 and 2012 woman knows she is pregnant.3 If a woman is pregnant, there is no known amount 20 Any Alcohol Use 17.9 or type of alcohol that is safe for her to Binge Alcohol Use drink.4 To prevent problems like FASD, a woman who is pregnant or likely to become 15 pregnant should not drink alcohol.
