The female reproductive system is complex and constantly going through multiple phases of change. For this reason, it has been considered in these branches of medicine as gynecology (the general health of the female reproductive system and their associated diseases) and obstetrics (from the conception to the birth and post-partum stage of pregnancy). At Ch. Rahmat Ali Memorial Trust (CRAMT) Hospital, we recognize the importance of our females and how to take care of their health as reproducers of our society; therefore, it is our priority to provide state-of-the-art facilities and quality care to our women throughout their reproductive cycles.
