- Abstract
The author reflects on the trends in obstetrics and gynecology (OBGYN) specialists in Oman. She reveals that OBGYN in Oman is largely dominated by women but men and women entering OBGYN residency programs are rapidly declining. She adds that male medical students consider their gender as negative factor in pursuing OBGYN. She explores why women do not want to push a career in OBGYN and delves into the need of training for OBGYN specialists in Oman.
