5^th International Conference on Womens Health, Reproduction and Fertility August 24-25, 2023 Frankfurt, Germany

Track 7: Female Infertility 

In the United States, menarche frequently occurs at a young age of 12.5 years. In postmenopausal girls, ovulation is absent in about 80% of first-year cycles, 50% of third-year cycles, and 10% of sixth-year cycles. Menopause begins to occur between the ages of 48 and 55. The woman's reproductive window has now closed. Age has the most impact on a woman's fertility and chances of conceiving and having a kid. Endometriosis, polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), tubal blockage, and advanced maternal age, which decreases egg quantity and quality, are some of the most well-known reasons of infertility in women. Infertility affects 10% of all couples in America who are of reproductive age, or about 6.1 million couples. Obesity in conceptive wellbeing additionally prompts infertility and heavy menstrual flow.

Track 8: Adolescent and Maternal Health

The health of women before, during, and after childbirth is referred to as maternal health. Preconception, prenatal, postpartum, and family planning healthcare are all included. The main causes of maternal morbidity and mortality include discharge, hazardous abortion, and labour obstruction. The national Ministry of Health and Family Welfare has received support from UNICEF to improve the standard and breadth of high impact maternal health services.

Track 9: Sexually Transmitted Infections

Diseases that are transmitted by sexual activity, vaginal sex, anal sex, and oral sex are known as sexually transmitted infections. Pelvic pain, ulcers on or around the genitals, vaginal discharge, penile discharge, and ulcers are all signs of this illness. Bacterial infections, viral STIs, and parasitic STIs are the three categories. Among bacterial infections include syphilis, chlamydia, and gonorrhoea. HIV/AIDS, genital herpes, and genital warts are all viral illnesses. The parasitic STI trichomoniasis is an example. Less risky sexual behaviours are used. Comprehensive sex education is also beneficial in the classroom.

• Pelvic pain
• vaginal discharge
• penile discharge
• HIV/AIDS

Track 10: Polycystic Ovary Syndrome

A frequent hormonal condition affecting women of reproductive age is PCOS. It is a group of symptoms caused by females having higher levels of androgens (male hormones). Some of the signs and symptoms of PCOS include irregular or absent menstrual cycles, heavy periods, excessive body and facial hair, acne, pelvic pain, difficulty getting pregnant, and patches of thick, darker, smoother skin. It results from both hereditary and environmental influences. It is terminal. Birth control tablets may help with acne, unwanted hair growth, and period regularity. Anti-androgens and metformin may also be helpful. Metformin, clomiphene, and weight loss are all attempts to increase fertility. Also employed is in vitro fertilisation. It is the most frequently occurring endocrine disorder among women between the ages of 18 and 44. About 2% to 20% of this age group is affected by this. It is considered one of the main causes of poor fertility.

Track 11: Obstetrics and Gynecology

The medical speciality of obstetrics focuses on the surgical and medical treatment provided before, during, and after pregnancy. It focuses on protecting and caring for a woman's general health during pregnancy. Gynecology is the area of medicine that deals with the reproductive system and health of women, namely their breasts, vagina, uterus, and ovaries. Its main emphasis is on the examination, diagnosis, and treatment of female reproductive issues. Obstetricians and gynaecologists work in a harsh environment and struggle to improve the standard of medical care. According to the Harvard Medical Practice Survey, 1.5% of hospitalised obstetrics patients experience a negative event, and 38.3% of these outcomes were attributed to negligence.

• Malignant tumours

Track 12: Female Reproductive Cancer

Uncontrolled growth and proliferation of aberrant cells that appear in the reproductive organs is what causes reproductive malignancies. In America, gynecologic tumours in women are identified at regular intervals. In the United States, 91,730 new cases are expected to be investigated this year alone; regrettably, 28,080 deaths are anticipated. Chemotherapy, surgery, radiation, hormone therapy, or a combination of these are frequently used to treat reproductive malignancies.

• Cancer of the uterus
• Ovarian cancer
• Regular pelvic examinations

Track 13: Pregnancy and Child Birth

During pregnancy, also known as gravidity or gestation, at least one child grows inside of a mother. A multiple pregnancy, like one with twins, comprises more than one child. A pregnancy may result from sexual activity or assisted reproductive technology. With each lunar month being around 291,2 days long, this is a bit more than nine lunar months. Regularly, childbirth happens about 40 weeks after the last menstrual cycle (LMP). In the first two months after conception, a developing person is called an embryo; beyond that, the term "foetus" is used until birth. Early pregnancy symptoms can include missed periods, tender breasts, vomiting, hunger, and frequent urination. A pregnancy test can confirm whether you are pregnant.

• Epidemiology

Track 14: Drug Management during Pregnancy

Drugs are frequently used during pregnancy to treat some irregularities. Typically, drugs may be utilised for the treatment of diseases during pregnancy when possible benefit outweighs known risks. The most frequently prescribed medications include tranquillizers, antihistamines, antiemetics, analgesics, and antibiotics. Later in pregnancy, drug treatment may have an impact on the foetus' growth and development. Angiotensin, antithyroid medicines, benzodiazepines, -blockers, and other pharmaceuticals are examples of drugs that may affect foetal development. Nonetheless, every single pregnant woman in the United Kingdom receives at least one course of pharmacological treatment recommendation (no less than 33%).

• antihistamines
• antiemetics
• analgesics
• antibiotics

Track 15: Obstetric Analgesia and Anesthesia

A sub-specialty of anesthesiology called obstetric anaesthesia or obstetric anesthesiology, also called ob-gyn anaesthesia or ob-gyn anesthesiology, offers peripartum analgesia for labour and anaesthesia for caesarean deliveries. The task of administering anaesthesia during pregnancy for both obstetric and non-obstetric surgery has always been difficult for the attending anesthesiologists. While managing pain during vaginal deliveries and controlling anaesthesia for caesarean sections may make up a large portion of an obstetric anesthesiologist's practise, the field is also expanding to cover anaesthesia for both maternal and foetal procedures. Obstetric anaesthetists are frequently called upon during labour discomfort. The most frequently used drug to create a more noticeable physical square is buprenorphine.

Track 16: Reproductive Medicine

Reproductive medicine is the area of medicine that deals with the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of reproductive issues. Enhancing and preserving the standard of reproductive health is the goal of reproductive medicine. The knowledge of reproductive anatomy, endocrinology, physiology, and pathology is the foundation of reproductive medicine. Prenatal medicine and postnatal medicine can be further subdivided under the umbrella of reproductive medicine. Sexual education, family planning, illnesses of the reproductive system, birth control, infertility, and sexual dysfunction are among the topics covered by reproductive medicine. Reproductive medicine includes evaluates ovulation, pregnancy, menstruation, menopause, and other gynaecological issues.

Track 17: Pre and Post-Partum Care

Caring is associated with all phases of child conception. Pre-partum care, intra-partum care, and post-partum care can be separated into three stages over the course of a nine-month pregnancy. Pregnant women receive a variety of pathological and radiological tests throughout the pre-partum period in order to keep a close eye on the growth of the foetus inside the womb. This makes pregnancy issues like preclampsia, eclampsia, miscarriages, haemorrhage, etc. simple to find. After becoming pregnant and up until the delivery of the child, the mother's physical and mental state both change. Post-partum care is crucial for both the mother and the newborn child. Breastfeeding is one of the most crucial critical factors in postpartum care. The next step is to protect the newborn from external diseases and administer regular vaccines to the child. Other issues that arise following delivery of the baby include postpartum depression, peri-partum cardiomyopathy, urine incontinence, and puerperal fevers.
